I currently have a Rohn 20G tower which consists of 2 - 10' and 1 - 9' top
sections about 29' tall overall not including antenna. It has a hinged base
which enables the tower to be layed over to the ground. I need to rework the
top mast section which is rusted and prevents me from replacing the mast.
How difficult is it to lay this tower down? Can it be done by just having 3
men or so walk it down or is it too heavy to do it that way. I can run a
guide rope from over my brick chimney which is about half way up for added
support while lowering. The weight of the mast and antenna is nominal. From
what I've read the weight of the 20G tower sections adds up to about 90
pounds total. Since I was not here when the tower was installed I have no
idea of the difficulty in laying it over manually. Can this be done? Thank
you.
Don
