[TowerTalk] Tower and Antenna Cost Estimate

[WarrenWolff at aol.com]

Greetings Folks,
 
A while back I posted a set of data which would have  been
easier to read if it had its spreadsheet format preserved instead
of  condensed in the posting.  It was my initial cost estimate of
a tower  installation at Lake Havasu City AZ in response to some
earlier posting. I received lots of good help in  improving my spreadsheet.
 
Thanks to a fellow TowerTalker, Jeff (K3DUA), and others,  plus
additional analysis, I now feel I have my arm around the total
costs  of installing one each AN Wireless HD-60 topped by two
OptiBeam yagis: a 16-3  and a 4-40 turned by a PST-61 rotator.
 
I will be glad to share the EXCEL spreadsheet via email or  via
snail mail to any interested parties.  Plus I invite  additional
comments.  I know I will be chatting with Jeff some more in  the
near future.
 
My number????   A conservative $16,500  complete.  That’s less
than a new GLASTRON is going to cost  me.
