- I am going to attempt to shunt feed my tower for 160, with cables drapped down the outside and all. I know this will add a variable to the problem, but with a US Tower MA550 there isn't much choice.

- You know how 25G legs get compressed by overtorquing the bolts? Well a professional showed me how you get the sections seperated.. you pull the bolts then climb up on the now unbolted section and roc

- Finally got my MA-550 vertical today. After about three redesigns it is up. However, it will not extend! Goes up about 2 feet and then refuses to go higher. The tension increases markedly on the cabl

- Got some feedback, thanks Skip and Steve! The tower extended to full height this morning with lots of "funny" noise, clunks and resistance suddenly decreasing on winch. Sounds like some mechanical in

- My C3E, roof mounted, works almost exactly like the original message. I have no qualms with this "bonus" performance. In fact, 3B6RF was much easier to work on 17 than 15. I know.. lots of factors in

- The tower construction will begin as soon as I can dig the soil. Taking the basic tower talk advice I decided to spend more money. Freestanding a tubular crankup rather then house bracket it. In the

- Problem is, if it is Spaulding, then the Rohn designation would be AX instead of BX. The original wasn't as strong, as I remember it, but you could use the earthscrew anchor base rather than concrete
