[TowerTalk] Tower cost estimate?

That sounds pretty dangerous! I would use a tower designed to be self
supporting like Trylon, AN Wireless, Rohn SSV or a Universal Aluminum
tower.

for only a 6 meter ground plane at 55-60' the rohn 45 would be way overkill.
even rohn 25 would be way more than is needed.

Hi all, I need to get a rough estimate of what it would cost to install a
ground mounted, self supporting 55 to 60 foot tower, supporting a 6 meter
ground plane.

Cost would include... say a run of LMR400 with proper tower and cable
grounding and an entrance panel. Would Rohn45 be up to that task?

Location; up in the hills of northern New Jersey.

Thanks for your help,
