First of all Thank you very much for all of you that replied.
I still am not 100% sure of this tower type. I had my local HAM guy check it
out and he said it looked in good condition, but could not ID it. So,
I took some pictures that can be found at
www.myakkatech.com/tower
If you have a chance all opinions and information would be
appreciated.
Thanks Again
