I recently joined this mailing list. If a person wanted to put up a 150' tower but didn't have enough clear acreage for full guying.and given the cost for a self supporting tower of that height is pr

Yes, this probably could be done, but not without careful structural analysis of the interface between the guyed tower and the aluminum tower. The free standing aluminum tower would normally be plant

It is possible to use a smaller guy radius than 80% if the anchors, cable and tower are properly designed. A 100' lightweight aluminum tower is not going to be able to hold much, maybe a VHF antenna.

70% is still >100'. Clearing trees to preclude interference in that large of a radius could be a problem.

Anything is feasible is engineered properly. Are you talking about putting a 100' aluminum tower on top of 50' of steel tower? What do you want to do with this structure? Do you know what the cost of

First question is what are you trying to achieve? Contests installation, DXer or casual? Then looking at your situation you should decide what is the best, most effective (cost and DX wise) solution.

Agreed. A 100' foot aluminum tower properly installed has a minimal windloading capability in the first place. That is really the bottom line. 73 es gl, Bob AI7M any Weather Stations", and lot's more

It's possible to go much steeper than 70% with a guyed tower, if it's engineered properly. For example, there's a 700' tower near me with guy radius of around 300'. It requires a stronger tower, stro

I have mounted several towers in this fashion. I used some 40" face tower (two 20' sections mounted in cement) with about 35' sticking up, then fabricated a base to match the Delhi/Rohn HBX series an

What does that mean? What's your proposed antenna load? What's your county windspeed rating? Cheers, Steve K7LXC TOWER TECH

That's a pretty dinky load and windspeed but nonetheless any 'custom' structure requires a PE design. Your choices are to go with a real factory engineered self-supporter or a guyed tower with close-
