Attn Tower Talk Users,
Considering the purchase of a used 7 yr old US Tower MA40 Tubular style
crankup and have been told by the company that the cables need to be
replaced approx every 3 years depending on the climate by a professional
installer.  Has any user of this type of tower had to replace the cables on
their tower and if so what was the expense?  Is 3 years the approx life span
for cables on a crankups generally speaking or can you expect to get more
life out of them.  I suppose the company is playing it safe(liability wise)
when  making this recomendation.
Thanks for you opinions.....73 Kent   KK1H
