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

really a 25AG3. Later, you said you thought it was a 25AG. In fact, I am reading lots of confusing data on this relector about Rohn tops that does not agree with my Rohn book. For example, K7LXC say

Now these sound like reasonable ratings. Crankup manufacturers in the US should follow the UK example. Stan w7ni@teleport.com

Hi Geoff, I think you are looking for a Rohn TA45 Torque Arm Stabilizer Assembly. These thing do a great job of stabilizing the tower against twisting. Rohn recommends them when you sidemount a dish

I have heard this advice several times but I am not sure how important it is either. When you say "tension all guys the same amount", you must be saying tension the set at 30 feet the same as the se

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

Yes, I sell Rohn tower, but the intent of this post is not a commercial. In fact, it is probably an anti-commercial. Last year when I considered taking on a Rohn dealership for the second time, I did

Hi Scott, I noticed that when you divide the "lbs" by the "sq ft" you get about 13 at 70 mph and about 20 at 85 mph using the data in the above chart. An old EIA wind chart that I have in an old Roh

I think you are missing something here, Nick. When you read the specs for loads that can be put on a tower, the load of the TOWER ITSELF is not mentioned, but it certainly is there. So when you see

Hi Gene, Some of what I say you probably won't like. There are reasons, though, why there are no simple answers to your questions as you will see. This is a very common problem and I believe you have

My opinion is that who ever is in charge of this tower is damn lucky it hasn't crashed on his head and killed somebody. You are perfectly correct in refusing to climb it. It would probably be a good

Hi Hank, Rohn does make a hinged base (BPH25G) but it is made to mount to a flat concrete pad. Not ideal for Field Day. Rohn also makes a "drive-in base" (SDB25G) That has a angle iron spike on the
