Hello Charles
I have the G-1000DXA 35' up on rohn 45G.It turns a Force 12 C3S/HH.The
HH is for 140 MPH wind load.This antenna weighs 75#.The rotor is on one
shelf,then there is another shelf with a thrust bearing,and then a flat top
45AG section with another thrust bearing.Been up about 3 months.No problems
yet.Have not even had to go back up the tower.Never ran a Tail Twister but
heard it is also a fine rotor.The connectors on the Yeasu are a pain to set up
but once there done no problem.Hope this helps.
