241. [TowerTalk] Internet Tower (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2017 19:17:00 -0400; The wide spread leg towers require less concrete, I expect. Like windmill towers. Easily added on, if you start with the right base.

[TowerTalk] Field Day (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Thu, 6 Jul 2017 11:20:36 -0400 (EDT); Ours is pretty big, two clubs, nine stations, QRP, battery. https://www.flickr.com/photos/15191114@N02/albums/with/72157603793969918 _______________________________________________ __________________; /archives//html/Towertalk/2017-07/msg00070.html (8,013 bytes)

[TowerTalk] Bearings for Axial Load (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2017 10:23:33 -0400 (EDT); Roller bearings are great, unless your rotator is very fast.

[TowerTalk] EFHW (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Sat, 15 Jul 2017 17:06:21 -0400 (EDT); It's interesting that hams have been using end fed wires since the beginning, without fanfare, often after being told they were hard to use and a poor choice.

245. [TowerTalk] Foundation Bolts (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Sat, 22 Jul 2017 11:12:22 -0400 (EDT); I'd bet at least 50 cents that the nuts below the template will push if off the top. If not, get a longer wrench. Be sure you get a really tight fitting wrench, to avoid rounding the nuts. Lube the t; /archives//html/Towertalk/2017-07/msg00218.html (7,316 bytes)
246. [TowerTalk] Adjustment to Tower Base (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Sat, 22 Jul 2017 22:18:55 -0400 (EDT); No one has mentioned the ugly possibility of cracking the concrete by pushing on the bolts .....It has almost no tensile strength. Rather than bend the bolts, you might consider the possibility of us; /archives//html/Towertalk/2017-07/msg00240.html (8,475 bytes)

[TowerTalk] Adjustments to Base (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2017 08:16:29 -0400 (EDT); It's interesting that no one has mentioned jacking/pulling on the tower feet. I'd bet another 50c that the tower legs are more flexible than the bolts. WL ____________________________________________; /archives//html/Towertalk/2017-07/msg00251.html (7,177 bytes)
248. [TowerTalk] Base Adjustment (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2017 09:20:25 -0400 (EDT); WOW, music to my ears, seldom heard? Wilson, You're probably right! However, jacking the feet apart at the base section then creates a permanent problem if the tower is moved.

249. [TowerTalk] Adjust Base (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Sun, 23 Jul 2017 12:27:38 -0400 (EDT); That is a great idea if the base bolt was out of location. In this case it the bolts are crooked and at some height they are in the correct location.

250. [TowerTalk] Pulley Bearing (score: 1): Author: "Wilson Lamb" <infomet@embarqmail.com>; Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2017 12:45:24 -0400 (EDT); Is it a sleeve bearing? Must be if that wide. How is it broken? If so, easily pressed out, maybe with a big C clamp or vise. Push with a socket or rod that just clears the pulley ID.

They don't mention duty cycle. 1.5HP at 12V likely about 100A. You can't do that for long in that little housing!

The item of concern to me would be the house attachment. I hope it's in the attic, so you can tie into several studs and joists. It's so low the tower has a lot of leverage!

I used to maintain a BC station that shunt fed an old FM tower.
