[TowerTalk] Tower Suggestions???

[david jordan]

Ditto,

I've just recently finished renovating a CT-100 TRI-EX tower (commercial 
grade 100ft crank-up).  Karl provided me the blue prints and a
complete re-cabling package for the tower with hint and tips on how to 
perform the replacement of the cables. The tower is working great!

73,
