Re: What type of towers do you use?

said by John Galt:

You can get a guyed tower to 2,000 feet...or more.
In theory. The FAA will not approve towers over 2,000 feet anymore. The one I work under is 1,976 feet.

Holy moley, 1976 feet ? Tallest building is currently the Taipei 101 building at 1671 feet. That guyed tower must be the tallest structure in the world. What's the hiring rate for circus monkeys to climb, install and point the antenna ?

This tower is a television broadcast tower. There's a slightly taller one just a few miles away. I think the tallest tower is in North Dakota.

I don't climb it.

damn it, I have to climb to the top of that tower someday and see for myself what brand of surge arrestors they use.
