Installing a 30 foot Rohn 25G tower at the qth of 9Y4NG-Arnold …. Installation is done without a gin pole , as the 10ft section is light ( pse think twice before installing this way ) …….. Cecil – 9Z4CLN is in the orange coverall , and Arnold – 9Y4NG is the videographer . After receiving emails from guys who are not into installing towers, I must say — YES that I do have 2 Gin Poles , I have been installing towers for yearssssss. I have the physical strength and a lot of learnt techniques for doing an installation this way …… ROHN 25G sections are very light for me to manage this way by myself ……… I have installed a 50ft and a 40ft tower with this method.. If you must try this , practice on the ground with a 10ft section to get used to the sections weight .
The Fresno Amatuer Radio Club 2008 Field Day held at Pineridge School in Pineridge California, elevation 4843 feet. This is the raising of a portable 75 foot tower.
