The design of the t post that we have and the location of what I was thinking were post holes.  They are not jiving too well with the photos that I am getting back. 

On a side not,  we do have the base of the hydrophon in place.  This will save some work in the future...

The base of the hydrophone?  You mean the pipe portion? I knew that was there.

Any luck figuring out how/where to mount the forward antenna posts?  We still need to get some dimensions from Tom for the straight antenna post on the Drum.

The photos and dimensions should be enough for a welder to work with.  It's good enough for government work. :)  Thanks!
