Dale,
My experience with the Hazer has been very positive. I bought the heavy
duty galvanized steel model back in the mid 80's when Glen Martin first came
out with it. I had it loaded to capacity with a 3 element Telrex 40m yagi
and TH7. I had it up for about 6 or 7 years in the Washington DC area.
Snow, ice, wind, no problem. It worked perfect. I didn't feel the stock
pulley was adequate for my load so I used a much heavier one. I never had a
problem with service and it came with all the parts. I took it down in 1993
before I moved to GA. Finally sold it around 2006, 21 years later and it
was still in great condition. No rust expect the thrust bearing needed to
be replaced.
I don't know if they changed the design or material since, but I sure had a
good one.
