Good advice but I have two recommendations:
1. Crank tower down BEFORE a storm approaches, if you happen to lose
ac power how are you going to get the tower down?
2. I have seen an accident using a remote control unit and not actually
observing the tower coming down. I got rid of the remote control I
had and stand right at the tower ready to stop it if trouble happens.
