[TowerTalk] TT40 Wilson Tower

[WA3GIN in Alexandria City]

The Rohn 25 house bracket works perfectly for this tower.  All you need
is to fabricate a steel strap to hold the tower to the bracket with
bolts. I did this for my TT-40. The tower was up 20+ years.  Never a
problem.

House bracketed bearing?  You COULD fabricate a block
from oak, and grease it.  Then captivate it in a steel
bracket which bolts to the building.  If you were to do 
so, look for Fernco rubber plumbing couplings, to place above
and below the block,  to keep water out, and grease in.  

On the other hand, if you pour enough concrete to start with,
you shouldn't need the house bracket.
