A 38-foot Tristao Tower, similar to the U.S. Tower HDX538, was installed twice by the author, first in 1980 and then reinstalled in 1989. The resource details the challenges of self-performing heavy construction tasks like breaking concrete and digging a 3' x 3' x 6' deep footing, contrasting it with hiring professionals for the second installation. It highlights the financial and physical costs associated with DIY tower foundation work, noting a rebar cage cost of $65 in 1980 versus $150-$175 today, and the expense of tools for bending rebar. The content emphasizes the critical importance of obtaining building permits, recounting how a permit in Buena Park, California, nullified a neighbor's complaint about TVI. It also discusses the necessity of adhering to local building codes, such as the 1975 UBC and the subsequent 1985 UBC recertification requirement, which reduced the allowed antenna wind loading from 30 square feet to 20 square feet for the author's _KT34A_ Yagi. The footing depth also increased from 6 feet to 6.5 feet under the newer code. Practical advice includes hiring licensed contractors for specialized work, delaying antenna installation for a month after raising the tower, and verifying buried utilities before any excavation. The author provides specific examples of utility location services like _DigAlert_ in California, underscoring the legal and safety implications of neglecting this step. The narrative is grounded in personal experience, offering a realistic perspective on tower projects.

On March 27, 2017, the FCC adopted final rules for the USA 630-meter band, detailed in Report and Order FCC 17-33, which required PLC coordination with the Utilities Telecom Council before amateur operations could commence. This resource documents the WD2XSH experimental group's activities, including authorized stations, band plans, and frequency assignments within the 465-515 KHz range, with many stations operating between 495-499 KHz and 501-510 KHz. The site also highlights the WRC-12 decision on February 14, 2012, which granted a new **7-kilohertz-wide** secondary allocation between _472-479 kHz_ for the Amateur Radio Service worldwide. The group's efforts included operating with a maximum ERP of **20 Watts** across 45 stations in the continental USA, Alaska, and Hawaii, using emission modes such as CW, PSK-31, FSK-31, and MSK-31. The site provides links to download FCC 17-33 in PDF and DOCx formats, and offers a station location map, a list of stations by callsign and frequency, and an archive of news updates. Reception reports for any 600-meter station are encouraged to help the amateur radio community understand propagation and repeatability on this challenging band.
