[TowerTalk] AB-1339 Mast

[Blake Bowers]

Someone has given you bad information.

http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/endecaSearch?Ntt=antenna&Ntk=P_Lot_Title&Ntx=mode+matchall&N=0&Nty=1&Ns=Lot%20Number|0&words=antenna&cmd=keyword

http://gsaauctions.gov/gsaauctions/aucindx/

These are just auctions of what is available for public purchase.

I think what the OP was advising was at the step before public
sale, where local government can screen for stuff.  As access is
required to search that, I can try a cut and paste.  I see mast sections.
