Tower ratings by Tri-Ex are for 70 mph. I have owned and will own another
Tri-Ex tower. I have spoken to them on the landline over the years and have
received the same response: the tower rating goes up as the tower is lowered.
For the tower I had, they sent me a chart on tower rating vs. height ( this
was about 10 years ago ).
Tri-Ex will sell you engineering drawings(state of California P.E. sealed)
for around $50 which is applicable toward a tower purchase.
