[TowerTalk] Amerite vs. Rohn

[w5kft at nts-online.net]

	Years ago a company called American Tower made a brand of 
tower called AMERITE.  They had a model similar to Rohn 25 with 
only the horizontal brace, it didn't have the "Z" brace. I think it was 
called AMERITE 11,  There was also a larger model, similar to 
Rohn 45.  This company was located in Ohio or Indiana and was 
later purchased by Rohn.

	I have a friend that has one of the old Amerite 11 towers that 
has been up 60 feet since 1962.  He wants to take it down and 
replace it with a new Rohn 25 tower.  Question is, does anyone 
know if the new Rohn 25 will stack on the Amerite 11 base section 
that is mounted in concrete.  He would like to stack the Rohn 25 
using the orginal concrete base and not have to install a new tower 
concrete base just for the Rohn.
