I  would like to phase my current JK Mid Tri 40 on 100' of 45G with JK Mid
Tri  at 65-70'. Two options are fixed mount to EU or swinging gate like
below:

>From pictures I saw, swinging gates were used for antennas <= 75 lb. This
one is 98. Is there any sizable risk to swinging gate?   Should the rotor
be downsized to avoid tower damage in case the rotor overreaches?
