Hi Tony,

I used the Heavy Duty Hazer in Alaska on a 40 
foot Rohn 25G guyed with Phillystran and a Mosley 
Pro57B-40 (almost 100 pounds with the 40 element 
dipole) and a Cushcraft 5L 6M yagi.  It withstood 
120 mph gusts and heavy snow and icing.  No 
problems.  Now that I live in Colorado, I bought 
a 55 foot tilt-over, crank-up tower.  Shaky knees here too.

You can see a photo that appeared in QST of the 
installation after heavy 3 inch icing on my old web page:
