Hi Guys, I am looking for a source of a large quantity of unplated, ungalvanized ubolts of the kind for building Yagis. I want ubolts with saddles and long enough to go through thick boom-to-mast and

I have a TriEx Catalog from 1979 that shows the MW-65 as a tower that can support a maximum of 5 square feet, two feet above the top of the tower, at 50 MPH. I can scan the page and send it to you if

Unless the concrete protects the anchor clear to the surface, I think the corrosion danger is still there. W7MB once had some cables running up the side of his wood pole that formed a track to raise

Hi Ken, The amount of "free boom space" you need to get 300 degrees rotation from a swinging gate sidemount is equal to two times the total of the tower face width plus the distance the center of the

I forgot to mention that not all swinging gate sidemounts require the same "free boom space". Some require more than others since the center of rotation of the rotator is farther from the tower leg o

Not on his humongous tower. That much clearance will work with a Custom Metalworks sidemount on a 45G or 25G but not on a tower with a 34" face. Stan w7ni@teleport.com -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.conte

I don't think dead weight will be a problem. Rather, the problem will come during the crank-up process when maximum moment is on the hinge. This occurs when the top portion of the tower is in the hor

Hi Bob, You may have hit on the answer. I sure wish there was someone at Rohn to answer this stuff . . . If I ask, I am sure they will tell me that those calculations were made so long ago that nobod

Normally, I fully support Steve and his conservative position on tower installations. What I DON'T believe is that Rohn has "super-engineers" that are somehow vastly superior to other PE's in the wor

I use the same mounting scheme for two T2X rotators on two of my towers where the T2X's are mounted in 25G. I can see how you don't have to cut braces but only if you mount the rotator first and then

Hello Marc, If your prop pitch motor has been modified already, and it sounds like it has since it turns fast with only 10 volts DC, it is ruined and probably cannot be repaired. This idea to remove

You are right on this point, Art. I never did try to hook up the brake or make any other effort to brake the rotator. Of course, the original brake may be missing and lost forever at this point in ti

There are a few ways to splice fiber optic cables. One way is to fuse them together with an electric arc. They must be aligned under a microscope before fusing. Another way is to insert the ends to b

Yes, I have had similar problems recently with Rohn. In my case it was two short bases (SB25G) that had misaligned legs. One leg was both rotated and shifted vertically about an inch on both bases. R

Just wanted to clear up what is in a standard tower leg bolt kit from Rohn. Six bolts and six nuts. That is all. No washers and no PAL nuts. At least this is the case for 20G, 25G, 45G, and 55G. I ca

By this do you mean that you tightened the heck out of them? I just take them up snug. One guy wrote me an said there was never any need to deform the tower leg by tightening the bolts, but I have to
