[TowerTalk] Aluma Crank Up Towers

Ray:

I haven't owned an Aluma tower, but I did look at the print of their free 
standing base.  It looks amazingly like the EZWay tower free standing base I had 
back in the early 70's.  I had EZWay's 50 ft two section crankup-foldover 
mounted on the no-concrete, free standing base.  It worked like a charm.  My 
backyard was easily accessible so I just had a truck mounted auger come in and 
drill the hole.  It took about five minutes!  Then a couple buddies and I put the 
base in and backfilled with sand.  I can vouch that the concept worked fine, 
but I don't know about Aluma's execution other than having looked at the print 
and noting the similarity.
