- Are you back guying the tram line? I don't know if it is required but for something that big maybe. Antenna to raise: 310 lbs x 48ft boom to be installed at 123' Tower: 132' 55G (130MPH guying) with

- The official N5OT answer: "Try it and see what happens," a statement believed by some to be made by N5OT with no forethought, no engineering, and no data. But actually, I'm only kidding, and that wou

- And yes, I will back guy the target tower. Using this rope calculator for two different height anchors, I set one end at H= minus 40ft to simulate the load lifted. and set the other height to 92, whi

- With an antenna that heavy, I think I would rather go with the PITA of loosening the guys and taking one guy off, one level at a time and pulling it up the side of the tower. Or, a crane. Chuck W5PR

- My 40m went up in a similar way. The pro antenna crew (Paul's crew @ Custom Metal Works) trammed 350# 48 ft boom 3L 40m to 140' on a Rohn 65, back guyed with EHS the 3" alloy mast at 155ft as the tra

- I'm not an expert, but I did tram three 4-el SteppIRs, mounted on TIC rings, and a Cal-Av 2D-40A, mounted on the bottom of the mast, up my 110' Rohn 55 tower using a similar system. The SteppIRs are

- I have trammed many antennas up - the heaviest being 200lbs. A few comments from me: - The tram anchor is much too far away. There will be too much dead load on the tram wire. A more typical angle wo
