Its serious ?pucker factor? doing a 10 ft mast climb at 80+ feet. Personally, I have found that I can pull the rotor and drop the mast down with a ?come a long? to a serviceable height of 5 ft (allowing me to at least stand on top of the tower) in not much more time than build the steps up as they go. Takes about 2 hours to have my top antenna where I can get to it from the top of the tower and about 2 ½ hours to have it all the way down to sitting on the tower.
