Pictures of N5PA's New Portable 29ft Tripod Tower
July 20, 2011
Today I made a purchase of a new portable 29 foot tripod tower mast kit on e-Bay. I plan on using this as a portable tower to use for contesting at remote locations. I plan on buying a Tennadyne T28 antenna that covers 50-1300 MHz to mount on it for VHF/UHF portable contesting. I may procure a small rotator to complete the package. Below is a list of the items in the kit and pictures of the tower itself:
(Note: The pictures are from the vendor.)
This Tripod Mast Kit Contains the Following Items:
1 TRIPOD
2 GUY RINGS
6 MAST LEGS
8 CENTER MAST SECTIONS
1 BASE
12 ALUMINUM GROUND STAKES
1 STAKE DRAW STRING CARRY BAG
1 RUBBERIZED CARRY BAG
This is the complete kit and carrying bag.
