Cheapest tower's

This is the cheapest tower for hanging wire antennas.  

We start here. The 24' gin pole is on the right, the 65' gin pole is on the center and the 150' tower is on the left side.

First we pull up the 24' gin pole

 Now the 24' gin pole will pull up the 65' gin pole

 the 65' gin pole coming up

Now 65' gin pole lifting the 150' foot tower

 This is the hinge set up; the 150' tower on the left and the gin pole in the center.

 Starting to lift the 150' tower, and we have a 200 foot tower in the back ground about 600' away.

 Another view of the 150' tower coming up

 Another view

 Another view, those other towers are a few of the eighteen 65' towers circled around the QTH.

 The tower is almost up now but I forgot to take a picture of it when finished, but it looked good.

 This is the bottom three guy's.

 This is the top two guy's.

 The next day we had what they call a micro burst, where in a storm the wind gets up to 100 MPH or so for about ten minutes. Any way my new 150' tower looks like its bent over. I had the 8-element 80-meter sterba curtain up and the transmission line almost done. Now it will take me about 15 days to build a new tower. I had the tower guyed every 30 feet. I think it would have survived if guyed every 20 feet.

 Yes it's broke.

 Another view.

 Another view.

 Another view.

 In place of the broken tower will be a 200' foot tower.  This is the bottom 1/3 of the tower.

 Ready to unload.
