[Towertalk] Anti-climb

[Tom Anderson]

Dana:

I don't have a U.S. Tower, but do have TriEx WT51 crankup.  I took some (galvanized?) stiff small mesh
screen wire I got at a building supply store, some call it "hog wire" or "chicken wire", and molded and
wrapped it around the bottom 6-8 ft. and no one has tried to climb it in the 10 years its been up.  The
mesh is so small one couldn't get a finger, let alone a foot in the mesh to get ahold of it.
