For a list that supposedly has no activity, I sure got a great response 
to my request for information. Apparently US Towers is the company who 
purchased Tristao, so now I know where to look for parts. Someone also 
sent the link for the company who bought out Tri-Ex, which I've added to 
my bookmarks.

This tower has been 'horizontally-polarized' since it was taken down in 
1994, so it's long overdue to be put back into use. I'm looking forward 
to putting the modest A3 tribander back into service that I picked up 
from a friend a couple years back as well. I'm not a contester, but 
mainly do emergency comms work along with some DX, and enjoy vintage gear.

Many, many thanks to everyone who responded. It's good to see the spirit 
of amateur radio is still alive, even in a day of computer-control and 
plug-n-play technology.
