Cell tower is done, but not really. After installing all the new antenna, and the endless run around from the engineers, they come up with a doozy of a plan. Unbolt the whole antenna assembly- the three arms with all the wiring and antenna's attached, and rotate it 10" around the tower and reclamp.
It didnt' go well. The weight on the arms twists the clamps enough that it didn't want to spin. I think the only way it would have spun was if the all thread was almost totally loose, which the tower climbers understandably didn't want to take it all that loose. I think all the weight and clamps of the wiring- and its overall stiffness and resistance to bending, made it not want to spin also. We could get it loose and wiggle, but even with comalong pressure couldnt' get it to spin.
I told them to tell the engineers if they want it spun 10", the antennas and wiring all has to come back off, spin it, then reinstall. If they want it spun that bad, its going to cost them.
I made it to the cabin, I was a couple hours behind the wife and kids, but I made it. Cabins were CCC built, and down 15 miles of gravel road. Electric and water in the cabin, but no A/C, but being on the edge of the cliff, there's a constant updraft so a decent breeze all the time. View was great off the back porch. And with only 3 cabins there and a small camping area- its not very busy.
Had a good time, was a little warm but not bad for july. Went hiking sunday to a waterfall/ pool area back in the sticks.
