Re: [ATM] Help with Strut Flexure in my 3 Truss DOB

[RP Sutton <rp@suttonsonline.us>]

Hi John and Mike -

the scope was built on designs but Albert Highe - please see here:

http://pw2.netcom.com/~ahighe/home.html

I have emailed him asking for help as well but I have not heard back from him 
yet. the three single pole design has worked succesfully in may scopes just not 
mine and I cannot figure out why.

Thanks again -

Patrick
