US Tower MA-550 55' monopole (3-sections)

Collapsed coax arms

Rotator base less enclosure

How it tips over with fixture


Perhaps you know of someone looking for something like this.

It was installed by Ed around 2002 and has been unused for the past 1-1/2 years as we have moved into a motorhome fulltime. We plan to sell the house before year-end, so the tower has to go.



It's a US Tower MA-550 55' monopole (3-sections) on the rotor base (3 to 4-foot additional height) with a Yaesu 1000DXA at the bottom (rotating tower).

Included is the lowering fixture. On top is a Force 12 C3 (full-size) and Diamond (or Comet, I don't remember) 7.5 dB UHF/VHF omni. Have about 100' of 3/8" hardline, rotor cable and a couple of runs of 9913 coax as well. A fabricated locking sheet metal enclosure for the rotor base
goes along as the system is in the front yard and I wanted to secure the rotor.

All are in great shape (inland installation) and could be removed by Ed or a 3-person crew and transported if needed. Stuff would cost well over $4K today...I'm looking for
around $2K but will consider all reasonable offers.

Roger will be happy to show it as needed. Thanks for your consideration.
