[TowerTalk] Limitation on tower width. Was: Revocation ofBuilding Permit?

[Alan AB2OS]

Can't find anything about Sky Needles except that they were made by 
Tri-Ex, which is no more. I understand that Tashjian took over Tri-Ex 
but was getting rotten reviews, and I can't find "Sky Needle" on his Web 
site either.
