Avoid the Glen Martin bearing.  Mine rusted within 18 months.  The tower is
great, but either the Yaesu or HyGain bearing are better choices.  Or make
your own.  I used two or three cutting PVC boards I buy at Wal-Mart, cut to
size, drill for mast size and they work fine.  I've had one up here
oceanfront for almost three years and still good fit even with our
hurricanes.

YMMV.
