Folks,
 Here is what i have in mind to transport a 26ft, 190lbs aluma tower.
 http://www.americanvan.com/catalog/standard_dynamic_wrap.cfm?FamilyID=325

 Install  this rack on a 1/2Ton picku truck along with the roof mount.
 The rack will be in the upright position to the height of the cab.

 The truck as such is 17ft long. This should leave the tower with a 5ft over hang on
 either side. The rack should hold atleast 10 to 11ft of the tower.
 All strapped down with several ratcheting ties and several large nylon
 ropes.
 Install a red flag on the back and also install an optional red light at the
 rear tip of the tower.

 Drive away. Does anyone see an issue?
