Thought this Gin pole looks decent and sturdy enough for my needs with just regular tube tv tower...has top section going on in spring and I to am a one pony show as well...this looks easy...I used climb the tower and man handle it into place,,,lol getting tired of that and dangerous to boot.


Cheers!

 

My old gin pole was 1.25" squ tubing with 2 sets of hooks. I would just hook it over the tower where I could. If it was heavy stuff I was lifting then a strap around the tower. Costed $10 and was fast to use.
 
I use a clothesline pulley on my gin pole. It is larger diameter and runs really smooth. Some people said I was crazy for using such a pulley as it would never take the strain. That is when I challenged them to hold a line of wet clothes and let me cut the line. See if they could hold the ends together. LOL

  • @ Hambones amps:
    Does anyone know if you can replace the 2290 in a galaxy dx 93t twin turbine with a 2sc2879 red dot? If so, what would have to be tuned?
  • @ ShadowDelaware:
    Hambones the entire amp section would have to be retuned, and the rf transformers re wrapped.
