If you buy a US Tower you can pick it up yourself at Lincoln, Ks and rent a
trailer from them to haul it home.
I don't care for their base design but then I have never heard of any
trouble with them either.

Maybe a tower from a different manufacturer would be a better deal when
the shipping cost is figured in.
My US Tower HDX-555 was built in Lincoln, KS and cost less than $1000 to
ship a couple of years ago.
Is Universal Towers still in business? In Michigan, if I remember correctly.
