There's a tower manufacturer in Iowa which isn't well
known in the ham market but deserves a look by anyone
contemplating an R45/R55 class guyed installation.
Sabre Communications - http://www.sabrecom.com/tm_01home.aspx
Their hot deal is the 1800 TLWD (unfortunately not on the
web site yet, it's a new product). The particulars:
18" face
1.66" OD pipe legs
1/2" solid rod Z bracing
three bolt flange plate connections
137 lb/section
$160 list price.
Yes, heavier duty than R55 for less money than R45.
I've not had my hands on this stuff yet, but plan to
soon. I HAVE been impressed with the quality and pricing
of the many Sabre commercial towers I've installed.
They will sell direct. 866-428-6937
