Years ago I had a winning combination of tower, rotator and antenna. At least for 75/80M. Tower consisted of 2 sections each (20 foot sections) TS-7220 (72 inch section), TS-3620 (36 inch), and TS-3020 (30 inch). With section adaptors equals 130 feet. Held in a little over 200 sq/ft of concrete with ¾ dia guy cables. The homemade 3 element 80M beam with 82 foot boom and full size elements was turned by an Antenna Products AR-58 rotator. Never had a failure in hot or cold weather for 5 years. Divorce forced dismantle and sale of parts
