>We are selling our home and are making an offer on another house in
>western Williamson County.
>
>Due to restrictions at the proposed new house I will not be able to
>have such a nice station as I enjoy here.
>
>The house is on the market today for the first time. It is about
>2200 sq ft, 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, with many extras on 5 acres with a
>nice barn and fencing, but most important for this group is the
>amateur radio station.
>
>The station includes a 100 foot Rohn 45 guided tower with triple
>stacked tribanders. All the beams are upgraded Force 12 antennas.
>The top beam at just above 100 ft is a C4XL (D) upgraded for higher
>wind survival and includes 2 elements on 40 meters. The lower
>tribanders are 2 each C3(D)s at 66 ft and 33 ft. The lower antennas
>are side mounted on custom made rotating side mounts. All antennas
>are rotatable using M2 Orion 2800 rotators. At about 107 ft is a
>Cushcraft twist beam for 2 meters. The tower was erected in October
>of 2000 by Paul Nyland K7PN of Custom Metalwork's. An 80 Meter
>sloper is attached at the top of the tower and is oriented
>northeast. Lightning protection is provided at the tower with
>Polyphaser protection devices and an extensive grounding system
>composed of six 50 ft radials of 2 inch copper strap with grounding
>rods every 10 ft and again at the house with a Polyphaser entrance
>panel tied to the house ground and additional Polyphaser protection
>devices. The house ground is then tied back to the tower ground.
>Antenna selection is automated by a Top Ten Device. Horizontal and
>vertical selection of the 2 meter beam is proved through an
>Ameritron RCS 8V. All are in excellent working condition although I
>have not been very active in the last couple of years.
>
>I will consider all reasonable offers for the house with the tower
>system or just the tower, beams and equipment if a purchaser can not
>be found that is interested in the station and the house. The house
>can be viewed on www.CaroleEvansRealtor.com search for MLS 1001228
>or a virtual tour is at http://www.visualtour.com/show.asp?
>T=194577.
>
>If you know of any hams moving to this area I would appreciate your
>passing this information along to them.
>Thanks.
