Greetings:
Has anyone experience or comments on non telescoping tilting towers?
That is: A rigid tubular or lattice mast with a stub mast and hinge.
In the down posture looks like an assymetrical seesaw.
Remember years back in a photo in the front pages of QST saw one of tubular
steel maybe 100ft tall.
In my case have a rugged lattice tower, 6x 10ft sections, wondering about
making it a tilt tower.
Would value any opinions, reports on experience before I spend money on
calculations by a professional engineer.
tnx es 73
