We are planning to sell the vacant lot next door that we own that has 
several towers on it. So, for sale is one of my two U.S. Tower MA550-MDP 
tubular towers with the MARB550 Base and the MAF550 tilt over mechanism. 
You will never have to climb your tower again.  The rotator (not 
included) mounts in the base and that makes it a pleasure to change the 
rotator or realign the direction of the beams.   This tower comes with 
stand-off coax arms, mast, and mounting bolts for the concrete base (no 
nuts) and nestles to 22’ and the entire tubular tower turns.  Tower 
extends to 55’ and it has limit switches, so it goes up or down with the 
push of the toggle switch.  You don’t ever have to crank it – it’s all 
electric up and down.  What a pleasure!  Do not ask me for the specs as 
it is on-line at U.S. Tower or come by a see it.  This is for pick-up 
only in Stuart.  The tower is on 2x4 supports but the tubular tower 
itself weighs over 500 lbs.  The tilt-over mechanism and rotating base 
can be easily lifted by one or two guys.  A heavy-duty dolly and a boat 
trailer with winch could work to transport it.  I have a heavy-duty come 
along and an A-frame which could lift it onto a heavy-duty dolly or hand 
truck, but you (and your crew) will have to provide the manpower and the 
dolly or hand truck as I am limited in my lifting capability.  It is 15 
years old, so it needs to be kept well-lubricated.   I am the only owner 
as I bought it new from U.S. Tower.  The cables have been recently 
professionally restrung by Matt (KC1XX) at XX Towers about 3 years ago 
all with stainless steel cables.   If you can afford the wait, U.S. 
Tower will sell you a brand-new tower for $25,000.  You can have my used 
one for $2,000.

I posted this several months ago and only had one guy who wanted the 
tower, but had no way to transport is, and two guys who wanted my vacant 
lot! Therefore, I have lowered the price because Sherry want it out of 
the backyard.
