[TowerTalk] Taking delivery of crankup tower

[Al Williams]

If the crankup tower requires support on both of its ends and in the middle, 
how will it withstand the wind?  Build a wheeled dolly or borrow a nursery 
plant wagon to support one end and use a tractor with a front loader to lift 
the other end and tow it into place.
