[TowerTalk] Differences between Trylon and Rohn/Radian parts?

[Doug Hansel]

Greetings,
As spring approaches, my thoughts are turning to my 60ft of Rohn 25G going up.  I have the tower, rotor, antenna, and now I'm down to sweating the "small" stuff.

So, as I shop for bolt kits, guy wire, turnbuckles, grips, anchors, brackets, thimbles, insulators, etc, I see that folks say Trylon stuff is comparable to Rohn.  It certainly seems to be cheaper!  So, my obvious question is... 

Are Trylon parts really as good as Rohn?  and if so is there any reason to pay the extra premium for the Rohn/Radian stuff?

Many thanks for any words-o-wisdom,

Doug AA1UI
