Anyone have use for a couple sections of BX tower?  I have a spare section 
#5 and #6.

The #5 is in good shape, no rust, just some dirt from storage.  I have it 
standing up out back on cement so the rain can get rid of the spiders and 
dirt.. lol

The #6 would only be good for a cement base as part of a BX40, or HDBX32, 
sections 1-5 or 2-5, etc.  It was cut above the bottom bolt holes during 
removal, this was the way I got it unfortunately, but it would make a really 
good concrete base instead of buying the $50 set of base stubs!  Wish I 
would have had it when I put up my BX40.  Other than that it has one spot of 
surface rust where it had a piece of conduit strapped to it, I removed all 
that to clean it up.  But its towards the bottom, maybe a foot up, and its 
only surface rust and won't affect it if used as a concrete base.

You could put it in the ground 5ft and still have a few feet of it left 
above the slab, making a roughly 32ft tower with sections 1-5 on top of it.

Anyway, let me know if anyone is interested, would like to get rid of them 
before winter so they don't get buried in snow somewhere in the back yard. 
As for compensation..  say $20 and you come pick it up?  That's all I have 
invested into them.  I can get some pictures of them if you wanted to see 
them first.
