Maybe I can get one of those wetbacks to build a 400 ft tower for me!

If you do, make sure to throw plenty of trolls into the hole before

In World War Two,the swiss used to run up a big balloon into the air and
they had their antenna wire attatched to the balloon and homemade wooden
reels to wind the balloon's back down when they wasen't useing their
shortwave radios for transmitting and receiving.You could rig up
something like that.
