[TowerTalk] Looking for good source of 20 ft mast

[Roger (K8RI) on TT]

It may take me a few days to check, but a local ham (now a SK) had, I 
believe 4 stock sections.  He planned on mounting the rotator at the 
bottom of a 25G  (IO believe stock is 24')b ut they were so heavy that I 
convinced him to install a separate mount for the rotator on its own 
foundation. Unfortunately, IIRC they exceeded the load limit for the 
rotator. 2" with 0.5" wall was so heavy, it seems IIRC I could not lit 
one end of a section.  At that time I could press 150#, military, or bench.

At-any-rate, if it wasn't sold as part of the estate.  His wife is a ham 
and may still have them.  I'll check if you are interested. Shipping 
from MI would probably be as much as a whole tower, as I say, they are 
heavy!  If they are still around, I'm sure the price would be right.  
Bill had one whale of a station. I spent 8 hours on his tower working on 
that monster ant. I's sure it was sold.
