Portable Tower
« on: December 29, 2013, 04:31:52 PM »
38' portable crank up tower. I built this several years ago and our club has used it for field day, I have  pulled it to marathons and bike races and it has always performed as intended. The tower itself was originally an airfield lighting system and is rated for 250# up top. I added an electric winch and all the stabilizers needed to make it safe. This was our hub for all the dipoles at field day. It isn't the prettiest thing because it has been a work in progress since originally built. Pulls true and has 2000# springs. It has been configured for a mounted generator in the past, as well as brackets added for storing/transporting antennas. $1500 and I can deliver in SC or Eastern NC no charge.

Also, I will trade on a TS-480sat or synthesized UHF repeater.
