Find out when the tower was built and then check/verify this with US Tower.
When I talked to them prior to buying my (new) HDX572MDL, they told me the
national building code is changing so quickly, that towers of theirs that
were built only a few years ago no longer meet the current code.
Be very careful you don't end up buying a tower that you won't be able to
get a building permit for! Check with US Tower and your local building
inspector =before= you commit yourself.
Good luck.
