Just re-measured the tower....
37in on the bottom and 18 in top section. Looks to be an HDX-689. The
base plate was not a standard T-Plate either...but a large full plate
with 4 bolt holes per leg.
Explains why I had such a problem getting it off the truck with my
tractor when my other 589 came off no problem.
Re-cabling the tower, then up it goes when the weather is warmer with a
M2 4 El 40 Meter beam.
Thanks...

Subject: [TowerTalk] US Tower HDX-589HD?
I have an HDX-589 up right now and the base section per face is around
30 inches.
I just bought what I thought was another HDX-589, but the base has a
face of 34-35 inches and was built with a 3 inch mast top plate and a
mid plate for another bearing.
Any ideas what this is? It looks like a US Tower....just much bigger
section. Has 5 sections as well.
Thanks...
