I believe you have it figured out. Rohn 35 (as it was commonly called) had the Z braces reversed, and it always bothered me a little because when I climb I like to grab the diagonal of the opposing right face with my right hand. I couldn't climb that way with Rohn 35.

My tower has the same dimensions as the Rohn HW (the "Motorola Contract
Tower"), except that the cross bracing goes in the opposite direction.

A fellow list member said his drawing of the HW shows bracing in the
"backwards Z" configuration, just like the 25 and 45.

Mine is in the "forward Z" direction. Does anyone recognize that design?
