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.
