I had a "Towtec" motorized winch on a W-51 back in the 1970s! I don't think
they're around any longer, but it was a very easy conversion at the time.
Nice article here about using commonly available commercial hoists for
telescoping towers: http://www.w4abc.com/drive.html

Subject: [TowerTalk] Motorized Tri-Ex W-51
Has anyone tried, and been successful, in motorizing a W-51 ?
I tried slogging through the archives, found a couple of vague references, but
nothing of note.
Tnx, Dick, W1KSZ
