Spotlight	Transporting a 25ft aluminum tower

Here is an inexpensive way to transport a tower that is 200lbs. If over 200lbs, then one will need to use the extend-a-truck attachment to a front hitch receiver as well and this can take about 300lbs quite easily. I drove the truck from OH to NC, a 650 mile trip and the tower stayed up fine. No dents to the cab top. Thanks to Ken(W3WQ) an aeronautical engineer who was good with the ratcheting ties. Good luck krish w4vku

DXCC Status
A contributor states, "Currently there are only two countries that do not issue Amateur Radio licenses to their citizens, Yemen and North Korea. Thousand of deserving Ham's worldwide who enjoy working DX are shut out of any hope of obtaining the #1 Top of the Honor Roll status due to this. It would seem rational that these two countries (and any others who take a similar position) should be deleted from the official DXCC list in view of this. Why recognize a country on the DXCC list that does not recognize Amateur Radio? What say you?"
