>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.
