[TowerTalk] hdbx 48

[Mike Brown]

Not too rag on anyone's tower or anything like that, as I could have read 
this wrong years ago. But it has always stuck in my mind that Rohn said to 
not use any antenna with a boom length of more then 10 feet on  any flavor 
of  BX tower. Although, in this town, it seems like the ham tower of choice.
