Subject: Rohn 55 anew
I certainly appreciate all the good ideas I've received here in response to
my query regarding adapting Rohn 55 to my existing base.
K7LXC: Yes, the "incident" has been reported to the insurance company and
photos sent. It seems that (other than my $1000.00 deductable) all will be
covered,
The relative strength of Rohn 55 was brought up a couple of times during the
course of the responses. So, how strong is it? Relative to? Is that an
easily answered question?
I plan on going up 80' , with guys at the top and midway, and planting a full
or near-full-size 40M beam atop.
Does this sound reasonable?
Also, I've only visited one Rohn dealer's site. There, Rohn 55 was $259.00
per ten feet. Is that price ballpark? Are there less expensive places?
There's shipping to consider, as well.
Thanks, again,
Barrie, W7ALW
