Pretty expensive, though.  Sort of depends on how big the antenna is that you want to hang off the side of the tower.  For about 10 years I had a C-3E hung on my Rohn 25 as part of a stack, using 4 pieces of angle steel, u-bolts to attach to the tower legs, and two triangular pieces of sheet steel to support the rotator and a bearing for the stub mast.  No problems - fortunately the C-3E had enough space between elements near the boom's center to clear the Rohn 25 for about 300 degrees of rotation.  I was a little horrified by how much Rohn 45 and up would require to rotate without hitting the tower legs

I had one of these and they are very nicely built.   I never did install it, but the design is superb.
