[TowerTalk] New Radio or New Tower?

Bill,

     Go for the tower and beam - you will work stations that you won't believe. If you can't find a local to put it up, try Mike N7MB in Bloomington.

Hi Everyone!

I own an Icom 7600 and a Zero-Five 43' vertical.

I would like your opinion. Do I trade in my Icom 7600 and buy a Yaseu FTDX-5000D or should I buy a tower and beam and put that up. I think the tallest tower I can put up is 50' due to being close to an airport.
 
Also I live near Chicago, who can I get to help install the tower?
 
Thanks!
