I'm looking at purchasing a used US Tower model MA-550 on an MARB-550 rotor base. I don't know anyone who has used one so I have questions: Will it handle a small tri-bander with a 40 meter element safely? I will limit it to 40-45 feet because of proximity to power lines.

I recently downsized from a 120' Rohn 45 with stacked mono-banders thinking I was finished with ham radio. It took only a few months to realize I wasn't ready to give it up yet but I had already moved to a small house on a very small lot with no room for guys.

I'd appreciate any helpful comments or experience with this tower.

Thanks,
Jim - K9DD
