@jitterboogie?ÿ

Oh yeah, those plugs were the bane of my existence when running static sessions...I once made the mistake of not taking that 5/8" mounting plug out of the center pole and stowing it in my pack before strapping the fixed-height to a 4wheeler and riding another mile of overgrown dirt road to the next occupy point. Took forever to find that stupid plug when I realized it had bounced out along the way.

Never made that mistake again. Still love fixed heights, even if they can be a PITA.

Great setup, just bad weather.?ÿ This was 8 days after a major land slide that took out the UP's mainline over the Cascades for several months.?ÿ Millions of yards of much were moved off site.?ÿ We used the point for 6 months.?ÿ During the winter we had to dig it out a couple of times a day.

Here is the rover.

@rover83 We always leave the plug (bushing) attached to the extension rod. I use medium locktite on the threads to insure that they won't come off easily.
