I have been given a 50 ft Rohn tower (galvanized).

Problem is, I have to get it down. and I have a couple questions.

Weight of each section?

estimate of a resonable charge to have someone do it for me? I don't
like climbing

Is it worth paying 160 bucks to rent a 50 ft cherry picker to do it?


The catalog lists the 25G (most common type for hams) at 26 pounds per
section. Look here for some info on the towers and what Rohn recommends as
to putting one up.

Think I payed about $ 40 per section for some good looking ones that were on
the ground. Make sure there is a way to jack the sections apart and the
bolts may be rusted , especially if the Rohn bolts were not used.
