Hi Mates !
I've been looking at products to assisting with tower section raising (uo
to 55G) and antenna raising (up to 48ft boom). Having never used a rope
winch, I researched rope capstan winches & rope capstan hoists. They are
available inexpensively and expensively. They are available with chainsaw
mounts or with DC motors.

I found these three electric units that would meet my station work need. By
the time you mount them up, wire them in, your looking at close to $1000.

Share your experience and wisdom.
thanks
