Thank you for the complement. The tower is the US Tower Model TMM-541SS which is the 41' extended and 12' retracted. With a 12' mast and with about 2' of trailer heibht the total ground to mast top is 50'. It has since feen finished with electrical panels and a SteppIR 3-element beam antenna.
The crank-up tower was manufactured by US Tower however the trailer I purchased from ALUMA TRAILER in Denver. The frame I designed myself and ordered the 700 pounds of steel tubing and welded the unit. I then had it powder coated at Powder Coatings of Golden Colorado. I then installed all the control wiring, utility box, lights, limit switches, battery box, winches for tilting and extending. I used a 2000 lb winch for tilting and a 3500 lb winch raises it.
That's slick! "Field Day Special"!
I love it!
