[TowerTalk] Lifting 45G?

[K7LXC@aol.com]

Hiya, Tom --

    How did you sling them? My preference is to sling them on the top so 
it'll hang dead vertical making installation easy. I looked at the N3OC photos and 
they rigged it from the side. That's going to put it at an angle due to the 
headache ball and it looks like mating the sections will be harder. 

    My question had to do with picking up 100' from the top, not down the 
tower - I guess I didn't clarify that part. Of course picking it at 70 feet or so 
is safer but I'm disinclined to do it because I think it'll make the 
installation harder (I like things easier). Thoughts?

Cheers,
