[TowerTalk] Need advice climbing small tower

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

Climbing belts are out. Full body harnesses are what we should be using 
today.  If you are not comfortable the stay off and hire a professional 
or find some help.  They do make pretty small lifts these days 
especially for that height.

Be safe!
