Back in May, I rented a 45 ft jib articulated boom lift here in NYC - it's about $250/day PLUS delivery - which was $600, but boy it made the job easy - with the articulation and the jib, we were able to go up, turn, and extend out over my roof to get to the tower - ask John,  W2GD what he thought, he spent way way longer up there than I did
