[TowerTalk] Wilson TT-45

[Al Williams]

I had a two section Wilson tubular tower for about 8 years.  I don't know 
what the model number was but each section was about 21 feet long.  The 
antenna was a Mosley TA33 up about 10' above the tower top.  There was a Ham 
IV rotator (with the mast attachment on the bottom) bolted to the top of the 
tower and an 8' mast above the rotator.  The  tower was tilted up using a 
boat winch on the 2x6 member of the roof of a 2 story house and then 
anchored at about 15 to 17 feet.  No problems of any sort.
