Derrick:
To id the tower you have there is much possible is a t200 trylon 96ft plus
a 8 ft mast on top, check for numbers in the steps of the tower and
numbers in one side of the tower , if you find a number 13 in ones side is
almost shure you have a trylon,
i will recomend use in that model at maximun 72 ft the upper sections are
very light and i feel will not resist the 2 ele 40m beam,
good luck

Right now, I have a 56' Delhi, with an A4S on top, and have been thinking
about up-building.

looks Trylon to me, or similar, it's only been used for one of those p-to-p
data links, for maybe two years, and the new guy (school, who's elected to
go with fiber backbone) wants it gone, so I can get it fairly
inexpensively.. $$ is an issue in this whole possible project.
