I have a 24ft chrome moly mast on my 100ft Rohn 45 tower.  10ft of the mast 
are in the tower and held by two thrust bearings.  14ft are above the flat top 
section with a Hygain TH7 mounted about a foot above the top section and a 
Cushcraft 402CD mounted about 12ft above the top section.

I need to get to the 402CD and therefore will need to lower the mast.  Since 
this mast is quite heavy, I'd like to know a safe procedure to do so.

73, Greg  AG5W
