Tower takedown

[Redbeard U812]

The pull behinds are fine to around 40-45 ft used them many times.
Extra support under the outriggers is a must in the dirt. (4x8's) work well. On concrete they are fine.
I rent them for like $150-200 for 24 hrs. About $300 for a weekend(Fri-Sun).

135ft...Geez Child's play!
Try a man basket at the end of a 75 Ton Grove Crane with a 208 ft Boom. Now that's FUN!

When was the last time you free fell hooked to a friction rig or have ridden the ball? Groves are for sissies on rubber tires. Get high, get high, get high! Tap that hat!

Noticed the crack.....Max Gain has all kinds of fiberglass tubes. Was looking at their cubical quad spreaders, I'm sure if you contact them that cracked piece could be replaced easily. Good price you got it for.

I use BuryFlex. Did you check out the spec's on that coax. That should give you a basis on quality (shielding, loss, and velocity factor).

 

[Redbeard U812]

Spec's on that SI400 look good. Good price for .70/ ft. BuryFlex was .89/ft. Both a very close if not identical.

 

[Tweetybird]

No I bought it first it fat and flexible looked good they had two meter business radios. Have find info could not google any like it
