I HAVE DESIGNED THE BEST THING I THINK I COULD HAVE EVER COME UP WITH, I WILL EXPLAIN IT A BIT, I GOT CREATIVE THE OTHER DAY, WITH ALL THE DX ROLLING IN(AND THE GUY IN CONN. I HATE)I DECIDED TO BUILD A MOBILE 3 ELEMENT MACO. I USED AN OLD ALUMINUM BOAT TRAILER I HAD AND WITH SOME FABRACTING I WAS ABLE TO BUILD A FULL ELECTRIC PORTABLE TOWER, THE TRAILER IS BASICLY THE PLATFORM TO HOLD IT ALL. BUT BUILT A TELESCOPING MAST 30 FEET FOLDED UP IT IS 7.3" LONG (AWSOME) I PLACE THE MAST ON THE TRAILER WITH THE ELECTRIC CRANKING THING TO PULL THE BOAT UP I USE IT FOR THE MAST, THE HINGE BECOMES THE FULCRUM PULL IT UP AND FLIP A SWITH AND MAST RASIS UP TO 30', I HAVE USED IT TWICE DOWN NEAR THE OCEAN HOLY COW DOSE IT WORK GOOD. NOW FOR THE FUNNY STUFF THERE IS A GUY IN CONN NO NAMES HERE... BUT THINKS HE OWNS IT, AROUND TWO TOWNS AWAY OVER THERE IS A HANDICAP KID WHO USES THE RADIO ALL THE TIME. WELL THIS DUMMY IN CONN CONST. KEYING ON THE POOR KID , SO I NOW GO AROUD 6 MILES FROM THE JERKS HOUSE SET UP MY NEW PORTABLE BEAM AND A GENERATOR IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK BRING THE KLV1000V DRIVE IT WITH S9 AND A KILLER BE.. WELL NEEDLESS TO SAY JERK WAD WONT EVEN KEY UP IF HE HERES ME OR THE HANDICAP KID TALKING WITCH IS GREAT. I WILL BE POSTING SOME PIC OF THIS THING REAL SOON BUT IT IS DEFENITLY COOL.....

I am a disabled veteran confined to a wheelchair.
There have been many many times that I wanted to walk over to a jerks house and just pull his stuff down.
These drunken idiots give us "REAL" hillbilly's a bad name.
A great big thanks goes out to you Golden Screw driver.
You have done a great thing. (no man stands taller then when he kneals to help another).
P.S. I would like to see this rig.sometime

Keithinatlanta, I was never able to resize the pic's of. my cumputer craped out a while back and i am using a nintendo WII to post each week on here. As for e-mailing them to forummaster cant do that with the wii. I have made some major changes with it.. it now has a 7500 honda generator on it to power the amp's (base class c). Also using hard line coax, and another axel so she sits nice level and can handel a pretty good wind load on just the trailer. I will be trying to hit the next keydown in mass with it before winter comes along, and get computer fixed also. have all new pics of the new equipment in the pick-up truck, we now have two 350 amp alts to keep 9 1000 cca deep cycle charged in the bed of the truck, also two new amps that we picked up(i say we cuz the wife helps out with all of it and she loves to key it down)new antenna mr.coily punisher and a rear deflector off the tailgate full time. I will try to hit the library down town to get some pic sent in so all you guys can see this.
