The tower is a Universal 4-30

Problem is the tower narrows from 13 inches at the bottom to 10 inches at the top section.
At 10 inches feet feel like they are duct taped together and not much width at the top tower section either to stabilize laterally. With the diagonal cross bars there is no room for feet except sharing the same horizontal cross bar.
Appreciate all the comments so we can hash this out and get er done (without breaking my neck).

The original post said it was aluminum. That rules out Rohn.
