Apologies if you have seen this before
>From Peel Amateur Radio Club:

" I’ve been helping out Lee ve3bqw in Orangeville relocate. He’s had a
stroke and lost mobility so they are moving from a tri-level house to a
seniors community.
They thought they had a taker for the tower but it fell through at the last
moment.
The tower in question is a “40ft free standing tower
Removal and take down is required. An elder ham in Orangeville had to
downsize due to mobility issues. Needs to happen soon so as not impede the
sale of the house.
It’s 6 8ft sections bolted with stainless steel bolts. The bottom section
is buried 4 ft down.
Please see pictures attached.
Open to all removal proposals.
Brian ve3...@gmail.com"

I don't understand file chooser.  I use it superstitionsly.  And it
doesnt' work the way I want.

How do you turn that off?
