Cheap Tilt-Over Tower Ideas for Ham Radio Antenna

Post author By admin
Post date July 6, 2024

Tilt over towers can be very dangerous in the hands of inexperienced users – however I have experience of a falling derrick system to raise and lower an antenna mast. Of course, you can use self-supporting towers, hydraulic towers, wind-up towers, trailer towers etc but I need something that COULD be removed with very few moving parts and is fairly economical. This is my plan. What do you think? Callum.
