[TowerTalk] HBDX48

[jeremy-ca]

Now aint that something! Critical tower is about 15 miles from me.

Ive a HDBX-48 laying out back and have been wondering how to extend it to 
64' by adding to the base.I need the height to clear trees and will only be 
putting a 4 bay array of 28' boom 432 yagis on it and maybe a pair of 
similar length for 222.
The prior owner had a TH6 and a 24' boom 6M yagi on it for 25 years without 
a problem and the tower is in excellent shape.

If Critical Tower cant get 2 straight sections fabbed up I may just cut off 
the taper part of two or three #8 sections.
