[TowerTalk] Dang! Tower Problems

[Mike Fatchett W0MU]

I have a T-600 Trylon and a 70 ft AN Wireless.  The Trylon is fine but 
does not compare to the AN Wireless in any way shape or form.  The AN 
tower much heftier in the products they use.  The AN tower is absolutely 
solid when you climb it.  The Trylon has give to it.  I don't like to 
step in the middle of cross section on the Trylon.  I have no hesitation 
on the AN at all.

I hope that AN is so busy they can't keep up opposed to some other 
issue.  I did see where he was buying back the Commander Amp line.  I 
wonder if there is some correlation?
