[TowerTalk] Another Universal Tower Raising question

[David J. Windisch]

Fwiw, I second the tow-truck method, altho I'd tie it up around 2/3-height
with another pipe inside the tie, to spread the cable-tug up and down the
leg a bit, as I've done a time or two with a Heights 80-footer with 30-in
base.
