Last time I installed antennas on Trylon tower, yes, the edges of the formed pieces of steel that the tower was made of are "clean" steel, without galvanizing. It also appears that pieces are cut fro

Depends on the environment. If you have seen what happens say in Aruba, you would be concerned about edge corrosion. It gets under the skin and spreads like wildfire, stuff disappears. Normal non-cor

The better way for large antennas is to use rotator that ramps up its speed gradually and then coasts to stop. No need for shock absorbers. The best rotators are the ones using self locking worm gear

There IS a gain somewhere between 10 - 15 dB next to, or over salt water with vertical antennas as compared to similar antennas installed inland. Jump in the mobile and drive around you WILL see it!
