Howdy, TowerTalkians --
 
    There are several books that you should have for  your tower library. 
Probably the best one is a Rohn catalog. I don't think they  publish the books 
anymore but you can get it on cd or the catalog is online in a  couple of 
places. You can use the info to make educated guesses about other  towers besides 
Rohn. 
 
    Another one is Physical Design of Yagi Antennas by  Dr. Dave Leeson, 
W6NL, ex-W6QHS. Unfortunately it's been out of print for awhile  but I saw where 
there are a couple available on amazon.com. And you won't  believe the prices - 
 a new one is going for $179.50 and a couple of used  ones are $159.10! 
Unbelievable. You can also get a "collectible" copy for  $300.00! Maybe the ARRL 
can be coerced to make another print run if there's  enough interest. 
 
Cheers,
