[TowerTalk] Advice needed regarding collection of tower damages from freight company

[Jim]

A few things come to mind here.  First, freight companies never damage
tower sections of non-crank up towers?  Seems to me I've read of several
cases right here.

Second, the US Towers HDX series of crank up towers are rated at 30
sq.ft. of wind load up to 89 ft..  Not too many guyed towers can acheive
that.  At least not competitively priced ones.

Third, here in CA on city sized lots, there just isn't room to properly
guy a tall tower, not to mention the additional attention that guy wires
might bring to the tower.

Just my thoughts.  I could be wrong.
