[TowerTalk] AB-621/G Military Mast

[dw]

Thanks, I should have mentioned, I do have a small tractor and welded up
a fork lift for it this summer.  I suppose I could put straps around the
base section and pull if off the ground with the fork lift rather than
try and man-handle it onto to the top of the fork lift.
Good suggestion!
