Does  anyone have any ideas about wooden towers?


        Yeah - fuggetaboutit! Why  anyone in this age of fabulous and 
reasonably priced hot- dipped galvanized  steel towers who even consider a wooden 
tower is beyond me.
 
        The wood shrinks and  deteriorates. The fasteners loosen up. Would 
you climb one? Please consider more  accepted and reliable antenna structures. 
Thank you.
 
Cheers,
