[TowerTalk] Stacking Suggestions Please

[Peter Voelpel]

It must be confortable to climb with a 40m yagi 13 feet above tower, but...
My rotating mast collapsed 15 feet above tower at a recent storm with 170mph
gusts. 
It was 4,5" with 1/5" wall at that position.

You need to be careful with that 15 feet of mast up there - I don't know the
Super Titan tower and wouldn't climb 10 feet above it unless I was real
comfortable with it.
