Hi folks,
 I am getting ready to get my Rohn 25 back up in the air.
While it is generally good condition, there are some rusty and
and discolored spots. 
 For my purposes, ( no big heavy antennas) what kind of maintenance
should I pull on these spots before it goes up?
 Should I lightly sand the spots and add some paint or primer?
Thanks for any info.
 
73, Tom K5IID
