[evlatests] Ant 14

[Tom Frost]

one other thing to keep in mind...whenever welding is being
done on an Antenna, the Servo Grp needs to be informed so
we can bypass the Fire Alarm System...otherwise, the welding
fumes tend to trip the system & dump power to the Antenna...
kinda difficult to weld in the dark without power...
