[TowerTalk] Help Needed Replacing Crank-Up Cable on US Tower

I've recabled 100s of tower over the past 28 years, Tri-Ex, Tristao, US  
Tower and even a Rohn crankup.
 
Although not difficult, it is time consuming and does require a little  
mechanical ability.
 
I usually make my own cables, due to varying lengths on  towers, even  with 
the same model number. Of course you need the proper tools.
 
I can do the lattice type in the vertical position without having to  remove 
any antennas or rotor mounted, as long as they don't interfere with the  
movement of the sections. Tubular towers need to be tilted over and completely  
disassembled.
 
I've travel many miles to recable towers and if you're not comfortable  doing 
it yourself or don't have the proper tools, I am available.
 
Be safe.
