Age 66 years Young Still Climb..... but my ventures are now Well planed and duplicates of each nut, bolts, nuts, washers and wrenches .
My Wife/Bride has one rule..... a two deep... and not alone....
I have 5 towers 40' 6mtr / 144/450 FM , 78' 5/5 Rohn 25, 100' Rohn 25 5/5/5 !5 meter ( is a lay over but climb it most times unless a total re do )
100' Rohn 25 40 meter tower with 160 Meter Loop, also a lay over but climb for rotor repair . 150' of Rohn 65 5/5/5 20 meter. Climb this one the most because of the two Tic Rings But the BIG steps between rungs @ 21 3/8 " compared to 25, 45 and 55 @ 15 1/5" which more comfortable... But GOD Bless the fellow Ham,s who climb and work on AB-!05 with out lateral cross braces ... I have chewed more the one pair of boots and the wedged cross angles :(
