VK3ATN All-Aluminium Tower - Info required !
Posted: Thu Jul 21, 2016 9:13 pm
Hi All,
I recently acquired a 16.5 metre all-aluminum tower which was made approx 20 years ago by ATN Antennas in Birchip VIC (which was run by Ray Naughton VK3ATN who I understand has since passed away). I am in the process of refurbishing the tower and wonder if anyone else has one of these towers or knows much about them ? It is a guyed tower (model T320?) with a Hazer unit (moving carriage) which allows the antennas and rotator assembly to be raised and lowered without having to drop the tower. I would be interested in comparing notes with other amateurs as there is not much info that I can find on these towers....Thanks for any help here !
