Hi Bill.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you're reading some literature on this tower.

If you're of a mind to, why not make a copy of it and upload it to the files area of the Crank Up, Tilt Over Towers email list at https://groups.io/g/CrankupTiltoverTowers so that this information won't be permanently lost, one day?

I can find no reference to a THS-471 ... there is a HS-471, it's a 4 section tower, crankup, with area measurement of each section at 22",.....19 3/8".....16 1/2" ....and the top section at 13 7/8 inches...these measurement are one side of the triangle measured from the inside to inside on the pipes.

extended height is 71" and nested at 21 1/2 feet..weight is 575 pounds...It's a guyed tower, the guy kit is 120 pounds...all tower braces/struts are horizontal..no angles braces....

The cost of the guys $390.00..tower cost was $1177.00..Guyed the tower would handle 16 sqft ....

The 106 foot version of the HS series had a bottom section of 27 5/8 inches...

Hope this helps..
