     Well, the K8CCV estate is being sold off. At the Tusco, I sold his
     Clipperton-L Amp, a well-built home-brew antenna tuner and some
     other small stuff. The big stuff, towers and antennas are an
     interesting issue!
     Towers consist of:

     2- self supporting Riverview towers -- 1 is a 100' on the ground and
     the other is standing, about 80' good but top 20' (2 sections)
     rusted, but the rest should be in good shape. The 2 towers could be
     combined in different configurations if desired.

     1- Rohn 55, 135' with the 2 ele 80m beam (Telrex antenna & rotator).
     The antenna weighs 300 lb and the boom is 42' long with elements 65'
     lg. ( I have manual)

     1- Rohn 45, 135' (maybe 145') with a 5 ele 15m beam and a 5 ele 10m
     beam above that (both telrex) & telrex rotator.

     1- commercial tower 200' with a 36" face.. It has the 6 ele 20m beam
     (Telrex) with a cushcraft 4 ele 10m beam above that. Rotator is a
     BIG Hy-Gain rotator. Tri-County put up this tower (i helped Doug on
     the tower) and while their gin pole was still on the tower, Dick and
     I with some help put up the beams.

     1- 4-legged 140' self-supporter ( came from Hell, Michigan )
     originally 160' used as a Christian broadcast tower/antenna
     algle-iron construction with a Telrex 3 ele 40m beam & a telrex
     rotator. I put it together piece-by-piece from a dill tower up the
     middle.

     Then there is the 160m 4-square vertical system (125' ea) made from
     3 dill towers & a 4th tower of similar construction but a 18" face
     (heavier construction), all on 12" insulators.

     Also 1 more 125' dill tower by itself.

     I figure I am going to drop the last one, lift the four square
     towers off the insulators and then drop them. I don't think the 3
     dills are climbable.

     So that's the scoop. I can take down the Rohn towers with help, but
     the commercial tower weighs 300# per section.

     Let me know if there is any interest.

     CUL,
     Dave
