Another comment in favor of Rohn 45G, it is *very* comfortable to climb,
i.e., stand on. Can even get two people on opposite sides of the tower at
the same height with an inch to spare. I really enjoy working on my 45G.
(I wear size 9 shoes.)

Subject: [TowerTalk] Rohn 25 vs 45 ?
I am in the planning process of putting up a 130' tower in NE Alabama. I
will put up a M2 3 ele 40 mtr yagi atop. I want to put up Rohn 45, but my
budget may not allow it (only 3k in budget). Can I safely put that type of
Ant. @ 130' with Rohn 25, if I follow all of Rohn guying specs and not do
any potential damage to the tower or worse. Any and all advice/suggestion
are highly appreciated.
One strange question. Does Rohn make a 45/25 Reducer ? Where as if I
wanted to go up 70 ft with Rohn 45, then rest of the way with 25 ? May
seem strange or may not serve any other purpose other than saving
money......Agn, any opinions are appreciated......
Dennis, W4DWS
