    The AB-105 was mil spec tower used to hold up rhombics. Since they were 
all nut-and-bolt construction, they were easy to assemble and were 
transported in boxes. Miles of the stuff was surplused in the 50's and 60's 
and many current stations use it.

    The tower was built by the Trylon company which is now in Canada. Its 
current equivalent is the Model 2400 tower.
