I certainly hope they do produce very high quality towers, but ISO 9001
certification does not ensure high quality, only consistent quality.
The reputation in the Amateur Radio community will be a much quicker indicator
of the amateur radio tower quality actually being produced by the firm.
Thanks for the update. We will stay tuned.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Tri-Ex
Dear Ted,
In your T.T. message of 1/16/01 you stated that"Tri-Ex is no more", which is
not exactly correct. The Will-Burt Company did indeed buy all the assets of
Tri-Ex and are producing Tri-Ex towers in quantity, but with stronger
specifications and updated technology. What you might not be aware of is
that actual manufacturing of Tri-Ex towers at the Tri-Ex facility on
Rasmussen Road in Visalia has not taken place for over two years.
So Ted, when you say that Tri-Ex is no more perhaps you meant to say that the
Rasmussen factory is no longer there. The Will-Burt group has not only taken
over manufacturing of the Tri-Ex towers, but they are expediting
manufacturing and more important doing it under ISO 9001 Certified Quality
System. This is very unusual in tower manufacturing and means quite a lot to
interested tower buyers who are knowledgeable with ISO 9001 and how it
functions.
