If you're going to play with big antennas, you need a big tower to hold the big 
rotor.

I don't remember what this one is, but I know Frank LPL remembers.  I know it 
is a HyGain.

Something like 3501 (?).  This is from the 80m beam at K2GL, inside a Rohn 80.

Check it out.  This one is big enough.

It originally had shock - absorbers connecting the bottom gears (one to 
another).  We took
those off.

Not sure what is around that is equal now.  Frank?
