[TowerTalk] FW: Rohn-25G Removal

[merlin-7]

 I used a bucket truck to take down my 50' rhon 25..
 I used a cargo strap and attached it 2/3 up the tower, unbolted the bottom,
lifted it (with a helper holding the bottom of the tower.
 As the boom is lowered on the truck, the helper walked the bottom of the
tower out...

 It took all of 15 minutes...
