Re: [TowerTalk] Superwinch for US Tower

Great winch Rick !


I have the 90 foot version of the same tower. I use the armstrong winch 
method when
tilting it over and yes it gives you a workout !  I did make a remote 
switch on a 20 foot cable
so I could watch the tower when raising and lowering.  I used a toggle 
switch mounted
in a plastic duplex receptacle box.   I like your switch better. Where 
did you get it ?
