Bringing a crane out to do  antennas maintenance seems like a waste of money.
 
    Well, that wasn't your question. If you have some  sort of mast sticking 
out the top of some length, you just use that for a  lifting point. In that 
case a ginpole is redundant. 
 
    Or you stage everything so that the crane stacks  the tower sections, 
lifts the mast up and then lifts the antennas up. One  visit, one bill and you're 
done.
