41. [TowerTalk] Tower Identification (score: 1)

I am a Rohn dealer and I could not verify if his tower was Rohn or not so he could not get anything from me to prove it. There have been many "Rohn look-alikes" over the years and some are pretty goo

Hi Charlie, If you want genuine Rohn bolts and nuts for that, you have a problem. If you will take bolts and nuts of the same size, but not from Rohn, maybe you can solve it. Here is the problem: Roh

Hi Mike, Something seem wrong with your area numbers for the beams you are planning to use. I have not seen the Force 12 literature on those antennas, but I know an average 20 meter element has about

Hi Chuck, You can calibrate it yourself pretty easily. Just take about 10 feet of extra 3/16 EHS and hang it vertically from something like a tree limb or a garage ceiling joist. Then suspend known w

Hi Jim. I don't like your idea, Jim, but that assumes you are planning to use a standard Rohn TB3 thrust bearing. I have not consulted Rohn on this, but I believe just by looking at it, that the Rohn

Hi Tom, I think this is what the cell phone people do all the time when planning a system installation. They are looking for dead spots for their 900 MHz or 2 GHz radios. I think they use a GPS recei

Here is another thought on this: If you are considering stainless thimbles, I would say you need to consider stainless wire rope clips (cable clamps) too. And then, what about stainless turnbuckles?
