[Towertalk] Climbing GM Roof Top Towers

[Jason Hissong]

Hi guys,

The RT1832 just arrived today along with the lag screws, thrust-bearing,
side-arm, etc.  I have some questions regarding climbing the thing.  GM
recommends not doing it.  However, how in the heck do I get the antenna up
there?  The guy on the phone basically said that if I decide to climb it,
not to go all the way to the top (within two feet of the top is fine
according to him).  Anyone have any experience climbing the taller GM roof
top towers?  I cannot wait to get this thing up there.  My Hexbeam awaits...

BTW... I did get a climbing harness and the appropriate lanyard... just has
not arrived yet.

Thanks es 73!
