I recently purchased an old crank-up motor driven 60 foot tower that I would hope someone could id for me. The motor belt drives a gearbox, which turns the cable pulley. It has a approximately 1 foot by 18 inch control box which has two high current relays and two glass contained relays. The glass-contained relays are in old 8 pin tube sockets. The tower, itself, is in good shape. I would like to re-build the control circuits and out the tower in service. Any information anyone can give me on this tower will be greatly appreciated. See at www.winlyn.us/tower.jpg. Win, w0lz It's a little difficult to tell for sure from the photo, but that tower looks exactly like mine. The whole structure appears to be exactly the same. It even looks like you have the same tri-bander, stuck in the middle of the tower. I don't have the motor on mine, but I secured a large nut on mine so I can crank it up manually or with a socket in my portable drill. Anyway, I don't have the data on the tower immediately available, but I will look it up in the next few days, if you are interested. I seem to remember that there was some information on the motor drive unit. Not much, but there may be a manufacturer's name that would help. This will give me a chance to try out my new scanner. -- Martin E. Meserve - K7MEM http://www.k7mem.com (remove _nospam_ from my email to reply) |
