Well, the K8CCV estate is being sold off.  At the Tusco, I sold his
Clipperton-L Amp, a  well-built home-brew antenna tuner and some
other  small stuff. The big stuff, towers and antennas are  an
interesting issue!

Towers consist  of:

2- self supporting Riverview towers -- 1 is  a 100' on the ground and
the other is standing,  about 80' good but top 20' (2 sections)
rusted, but  the rest should be in good shape. The 2 towers could  be
combined in different configurations if  desired.

1- Rohn 55, 135' with the 2 ele 80m  beam (Telrex antenna & rotator).
The antenna  weighs 300 lb and the boom is 42' long with elements  65'
lg. ( I have  manual)

1- Rohn 45, 135' (maybe 145') with a 5  ele 15m beam and a 5 ele 10m
beam above that (both  telrex) & telrex rotator.

1- commercial  tower 200' with a 36" face.. It has the 6 ele 20m  beam
(Telrex) with a cushcraft 4 ele 10m beam above  that. Rotator is a
BIG Hy-Gain rotator. Tri-County  put up this tower (i helped Doug on
the tower) and  while their gin pole was still on the tower, Dick  and
I with some help put up the  beams.

1- 4-legged 140' self-supporter ( came  from Hell, Michigan )
originally 160' used as a  Christian broadcast tower/antenna
algle-iron  construction with a Telrex 3 ele 40m beam & a  telrex
rotator. I put it together piece-by-piece  from a dill tower up the
middle.

Then there is the 160m 4-square vertical  system (125' ea) made from
3 dill towers & a 4th  tower of similar construction but a 18" face
(heavier construction), all on 12" insulators.

Also 1 more 125' dill tower by itself.

I figure  I am going to drop the last one, lift the four  square
towers off the insulators and then drop them.  I don't think the 3
dills are  climbable.

So that's the scoop. I can take down  the Rohn towers with help, but
the commercial tower  weighs 300# per section.

Let me know if there is  any interest.

CUL,
Dave
