[TowerTalk] HyGain HyTower

[Stan or Patricia Griffiths]

Hi Val,

Have you ever priced that short Rohn insulating section?  If you are talking
about the RG25G, Rohn suggests that the West Coast Dealer Price should be
$1080.00.  Being a Rohn Dealer, I can afford to discount that item all the way
down to $810 (plus shipping).  I somehow don't think this is low enough to use
for a home-brew HyTower . . .  For your info, I have never sold one of those in
the approximately 10 years I have been selling Rohn stuff . . .

Doesn't Trylon make some stuff very much like Rohn BX?
