[TowerTalk] Aluminum tinker toy tower

[Jack - K4WSB]

We bought one of the (I think) 66 footers for our repeater group and hauled 
it back from the Dayton hamfest in a Piper Seneca!
I never heard of anyone else besides us who bought one and have not seen 
the design elsewhere since.
Worked quite well for our purposes.
