In reality, that is nothing but a standard contest station. While large, it is all available stuff from the back of a catalog. Honestly, the biggest thing I have ever seen was at Radio Arcala. It is a 3 element, 160 meter beam with a 5 element 80 meter beam above it. At almost 330 feet in the air. AND THE WHOLE THING ROTATES!!! This monster, coupled with the other dozen or so towers for the club, makes for a truly Earth shattering station.

Toni does a great job of managing /maintaining his station. Not pictured is a new 160m full size 4sq (all 130ft tower verticals) w a copper "field" underneath, Also a 2nd 80m 4sq Placing him in the top 3 of every multi single 160m contest since he began using it. That coupled with many beverages on the 160 acres helps ! He is a big help to xyl's who have lost their ham husbands. He buys their towers and antennas and takes them down for the xyl. Remove's the burden of xyl trying to figure out how to dispose of something at a troubling time in their lives. All towers are rotating and all are rohn 55G. He has assembled a very competitive M2 station from in the midwest. While it is very hard to get past the polar vortex 1st hop from Iowa, he still maintains many top 10 U.S. finishes. Toni is a true gentlemen and his station is a joy to operate from. Eric KJ0D
