[TowerTalk] Rohn HDBX 48

[Gene Smar]

Tom:

     The HDBX sections are 8 feet long vs 25G's 10 feet - probably do-able 
in a pick-em-up.  As for nesting, I'd suggest nesting the even-numbered 
sections together and the odd-numbered sections together.  The size 
differences are greater than between adjacent sections and they would nest 
more easily.
