21. Re: [TowerTalk] Pad and Pier Foundations (score: 1)

The "drilling rigs" mentioned as of late are all designed to dig a round hole, not a square one. Every tower foundation spec I've seen (USTower, Trylon, AN Wireless) specs a square hole. There are lo

OK, I can buy that. So, if they are spec'ing square holes for commercial users then those commercial users must have a reasonable way of creating the required holes. It seems unlikely to me that they

Yes, they probably use a back hoe. I suspect the answer to my original question about how they build the pad-and-pier holes is that they dig the hole big enough for the pad, insert a form for the pie

The MA550 should be able to handle a 2 element SteppIR to at least 70 mph according to the MA550 specs. In fact, it should be able to handle a 3 element SteppIR at that windspeed. US Tower claims the

You will need lots of patience. I've been trying to get my city to change its blatently illegal height limit for almost 4 years. I've had ARRL directors, an ARRL volunteer counsel, and a ham lawyer i

In my city (and most with height limits) it is not legal to install a crankup that can be extended beyond the height limit. You won't get a building permit for it. You can install it illegally and *h

Maybe I will be able to get a bobcat back there. It's not the width I'm worried about, but rather height. It would need to be less than 6 or 7 feet tall in order to fit under a "lean-to" that is perm

Any recommendations on how to take a crankup tower off the delivery truck and transport to the back yard without a crane or 10 strong men? They are heavy and need support on both ends and the middle

The trip to the backyard will be across a combination of concrete, stamped concrete, and pavers. The last 10 or 15 feet to the tower base is grass. _______________________________________________ See

I haven't figured out how to pour the concrete yet, but if necessary I could have it pumped. Yes, I know you wind up with some waste concrete but if that's what it takes...so be it. _________________

I haven't ordered the tower yet so I can't be totally sure, but it is almost certainly going to be a 54/55 footer made by Tashjian Towers or US Tower. It will be an HD lattice model OR it will be one

I'm not sure you can say the SteppIR is the BEST contesting antenna. I own a 3 element SteppIR and love it. The primary reasons I chose SteppIR are: 1) It is less visible on a small city lot (ie. 6 b

Lot's of cities require crankups for any tower over, let's say, 35 feet or whatever. They do this because *think* it is less visible. The truth of the matter is, as you say, that a retracted crankup

I believe a previous post was incorrect. It is my understanding that Tristao became Tri-Ex, not US Tower. Tri-Ex was later sold to Karl Tashjian who currently makes towers under the name of Tashjian
