[Mldxcc] [NCCC] FS: Towers, Antennas and Rotor

[Alan Maenchen]

FYI,  I bought one of these a couple years ago for CQP and sold it
immediately when I realized that it's too big/heavy for me to install
single-handedly. It definitely takes two people just to lift and carry.
Also, It doesn't fit in the back of my SUV.

That said, it's a great FD tower that can support a small tribander.
Just need someone to store it and haul it to the site.
