Secondly, if I recall, someone on Tower Talk trimmed off the top of a strong
tree and was able to mount a tribander on to the tree trunk. I have a huge ash
on my lot right now that would serve well as a solid 60 foot mast!
That may have been my neighbor, NI6T. When he heard I was considering
it, he strongly advised me against it for one simple reason. Most guys
who will climb your tower know what to do when they get up there. Tree
climbers won't have a clue. Garry had exactly that experience, and it
cost him a bundle.
