I have had this tower up for 15 years with an A3S for 14 of them and Steppir
3 element for two years, it scares the heck out of me with just the one
Steppir with 50 mph winds, so much so I wind it down when the gust get up to
30 mph. I must add it has never failed in all these years, but none the
less it makes me nervous on occasions. I guess the thing to remember is
that US tower rate the tower with the antenna just one foot above the top,
so if you have a mast that would be 12 foot or so who knows.

Considering a US Towers MA40 -- with Cushcraft A3S and AW3S beams
attached.... Anyone had any expereinces with this tower? Can it hold both
the Cushcraft antennas without guys? Sure would appreciate your
experiences/thoughts on this before I make the plunge !! Cheers.... Bob
