[TowerTalk] Gin Poles

[KI7WX@aol.com]

Looking at buying a pole for use on 25G and 55G tower. 

Narrowed down to either the WB0W or Antenna Mart units. The WB0W pole is more in line with the "typical" Rohn pole by way of attachment to the tower leg, and it uses a robust 1/2" wall 2" OD 6061-T6 tube.  The Antenna Mart is a bit more radical in attaching to the tower section cross bracing and using a two piece pipe with a coupler for the pole (see it on thier web page if curious).

I've only used Rohn poles and would ask if anyone in TT-land has experience with these other poles and would care to comment on them plus and minus.

Cheers,

Mark
