It was my understanding that Rohn sued an/or bought out a lot of the
competition over the past 30 years or so. Another source, particularly
one that would mate with 25/45 would be nice. Maybe made in Mexico?
Another possible product would be some sort of bearing assembly that
would allow 25G to nest inside of 45/55 and rotate using a OR-2800 or
similar.
