Hi,

I wonder if someone can help.

I want to hold up some dipoles and phase them, but don't want to give up
tower height.

What tower company makes a light weight but strong tower that would make a
good boom 35 feet each side of a support, assuming I can strut the boom
with a ten or twenty foot extension on my main tower? The boom has to hold
a wire droopy dipole for 160, I'll run the coax up the boom to the main
tower..so feedline weight won't be an issue.
