[TowerTalk] Identifying a tower?

[Don Moman]

It is a Delhi DMX series. They only made 8 sections for 64' total, so you
must have one straight section.  AT 64' they are only rated for 3 sq ft
altho they will hold quite a bit more - such as a TH-6.  I'm not sure I'd
be comfortable putting that on the 64' version - that top section is tiny!
No room for your feet if there's a mast there - real toenail time.  Base
shud be 4x4x4' or a bit deeper if your soil isn't too firm.  It is no sin
to guy these towers - they can take a lot if you keep them from twisting
too badly.
