Rohn 25G question
Cecil,
Rohn 15 is tapered at the top of the sections to fit inside of the bottom .... I don't recall the exact dimensions, but the top, tapered part should be "concentric" with the bottom of the next section and fit inside. (you may already know all of this and may be describing something different) 73, Carl - wk3c "Cecil Moore" wrote in message news  I have two 10' sections of 25G where the spacing between posts is the specified 11.25" at the bottom but is only 11" at the top. These sections will not fit together. Does anyone know anything about 25G sections with 11" spacing between the upper posts? The 11" spacing is too precise to be an accident. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

The slant is enough to cause the pieces not to fit together. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |

Rohn 25G question
Sounds like a manufacturing defect - or they got tweaked somehow ...
Good luck - if you try to bend them to fit, you really should check for cracks - including all of the bracing and connecting welds. 73, Carl - wk3c "Cecil Moore" wrote in message et... Carl R.
