Gentlemen,

I am attempting to identify the tower manufacture of the tower pictured
at:
http://www.ppinyot.com/antenna.htm. I would like to properly design a
base for it given the manufacturers specs plus perhaps pick up additional
sections.

The tower seems to be of a stamped steel design (not tubular) with stamped
steel cross members. It has been well maintained by the silent key's son.
I gather it is about 10 to 15 years old. There is an unpainted ladder
chained to one side for storage. Please do not confuse this as part of the
tower.

Also if you happen to recognize the beam please Identify it too.

Unfortunately some one discarded all the paper work not knowing it's
value.

Thanks Paul

This is definitely the Sterling / Rohn / Shelby "BX" tower series.
Rohn sold this specific series to the Thomas Shelby & Company -- which still
