Both my father (WC7N) and I have USAA.  Several years ago, the cable on his
55 foot crank-up broke and the towerr came done.  When the dust settled, dad
took photos and got price quotes and USAA covered everything without
question.  USAA told dad that they covered anything attached to the house
without having to add a rider and attached by a cable was good enough.
