Hi Tony,
I used the Heavy Duty Hazer in Alaska on a 40
foot Rohn 25G guyed with Phillystran and a Mosley
Pro57B-40 (almost 100 pounds with the 40 element
dipole) and a Cushcraft 5L 6M yagi. It withstood
120 mph gusts and heavy snow and icing. No
problems. Now that I live in Colorado, I bought
a 55 foot tilt-over, crank-up tower. Shaky knees here too.
You can see a photo that appeared in QST of the
installation after heavy 3 inch icing on my old web page:
