Tri-Ex TM-358C Sky-Needle 58' Tubular Tower.
I decided I will probably not install this Sky Needle. As much as
I'd love to, antenna at 50' on the Rohn is serving all my antenna
needs. Someone asked me for copies of extensive documentation I
have, and I was surprised to find the antenna load for this tower is
400lbs! Not including the mast and rotor! That is heavy duty.
Make me an offer...
This is a very Heavy Well Constructed Galvanized Tubular Tower
weighing in at 1100 pounds. Entire tower consists of the the Tower,
all parts and all engineering drawings that came with tower
originally. It has the Rare Side Ladder that leads up to the Crows
Nest. Tubular Tower is 3 sections. It nests at 23 feet. I am sure
there will be some work necessary in various areas, such as the
motor and controls. Motor turns freely by hand. I am unable to run
power to the storage area. The basic tower is quite sound.
All Mechanical parts of tower look very good. Heavily Galvanized.
All parts are included except for the base plate and cage. The Cable
had been replaced with Stainless but that is certainly worth
checking. Motor turns freely but has not had power to it in some
time. Aside from the attached outside control box there is a Remote
Control Indoor Unit to handle the Tower raising and lowering. A
power cable to bring indoors is also included.
It is currently set up with gearing for a side mounted chain driven
HDR-300 to turn the mast. The rebuilt HDR-300 is included. This was
a top of the line Tower when constructed and it's design is still
sold today. Those who are familiar with the name "Sky Needle"
already are aware of the quality. Always covered storage.
Tower is currently horizontal, on Cement blocks and Covered. I have
another tower which is serving my needs and no longer need to
install it. I am located in Fort Lauderdale Fl. I will entertain all
offers. Pickup and Delivery is buyers responsibility. As is where
is. Tower will need to be moved onto a dolly and rolled to front
driveway(the same way it came in). And then loaded onto your
delivery method of choice.
All Manuals, Engineering Information, Diagrams and Plans are Included.
