I put up 16 feet of Rohn 25 g ( 10 foot section and a 6 foot section. )
This tower is bolted to upper section of house near eave of house at the
10 foot up from the
a 3 ele tribander (TA33M ) and a 3 element 6 meter beam is going on it.
The tilt over base is on a flat roof .
I would like to use a winch and block and tackle to tilt over and tilt up
tower.
I bought a D and L WG2000 worm gear winch
7/32 aircraft winch cable
I plan on routing the cable through a series of pulleys rated at 800 lbs up
to the ten foot level
The question is should I use a block and tackle arrangement between the
wall of the hous and the tower?
And will this short tower be ok with the winch? I'd like to be able to
raise and lower the tower with the antennas on it.
The antennnas dont weigh much. The tribander will be just above tower top
and the 6 meter 4 or 5 feet above.
Any comments or suggestions?
