[TowerTalk] ROHN Work Platform

[kb9cry at comcast.net]

Theoretically yes they still make the work platform; it's listed in the currect 
catalog.  But, I imagine no one stocks it and Rohn just filed for Chapter 11 
yesterday and until that process clears and/or a buyer is found, you may not 
get them to make it anytime soon.

Do your work boots have a steel shank in the bottom soles?  Tower climbers 
really need that or else your feet will suffer.

So get a massage!  Gd luck, Phil  KB9CRY
