[TowerTalk] Tristao tower info still needed

I am so confused about how to post to this venue, hope this is it.

I have come into possession of a tower from a SK estate. There was a Tristao remote control there so I supposed the tower is a Tristao. I contacted a gentleman named Jody at US Tower . He said he went to work for Lou Tristao when he was in HS and moved to US Tower when they bought Lou out. Jody says my tower is a Tristao xx 484. Unfortunately I did not get the prefix letters down. This is a very heavy duty 5 section tower with a tilt base. I am looking for any documentation on this piece. I have a 1976 Tristao catalog but there is no mention of this unit. Jody says it was Mfg between ’76-’85.  Does anyone have ANY documentation on this particular tower or even a later Tristao catalog? Jody says is an 84’ tower based on 5 sections as opposed to the 4 sections in a 771.
Thanks
