Alex-

Looks like Rohn 25 to me.  I had a 2-element cubical quad at 40' on one for
many years, but would never have thought of putting anything bigger on it.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Need to identify the tower

Hi all,
A friend of mine got 4 sections of this tower -
https://goo.gl/photos/YjvjBy5idJV93ByQA - and he has no idea what exactly it
is.
It is on concrete foundation and will be bracketed to the house @ 28' level.

I am just wondering: what this tower is good for? Is it like for a tribander
only and nothing else or he can put 40m Moxon or some shortened
2-3 element 40m beam on it?
I am afraid that 40m beam will twist the tower and rip it off the wall.

That's, by the way, separate story - how bad will be 2-3 element 40m beam
mounted @ 42' height?
Is it still better than vertical?

Thanks,
Alex K2BB
