- Steve: a number of times I've seen references ON A COUNTY basis to Since 70 mph is the minimum listed wind velocity for ANYWHERE in the US, how come crankup towers are always rated for 50 mph? I thin

- For interest - in the UK, most of the towers are crank-up / tilt-over and the standard ratings are published at 85 mph. As an example, my 18m (heavy-duty) tower is rated to 11.5 sq ft at 85mph unguye

- Yes, but the POINT is (gee, do I REALLY have to state it?) that a free standing, extended crankup will come down at a MUCH LOWER wind speed than most people would think. An HONEST manufacturer would
