For get the idea! The masts were designed to be used with only a couple
sections joined together to support a tent or canopy, certainly not robust
enough for 40', let alone 70'. They are too loose at the joints and would
require too much guying to make them stable if you can even erect them to that
height. We tried them at this past field day and quickly resorted to plan B. It
was like trying to hold an overcooked piece of spagetti at the bottom and
expect it to stand up. The ham who brought them quickly disposed of them.
