Excellent rotating tower hardware

Time owned: more than 12 months

I have a 225' rotating Rohn 55 tower. I had the tower, K0KG had the hardware and the knowledge which he freely shared. The hardware is indestructable.... it uses quality components, galvanizing is as good or maybe better than the Rohn tower. I am just glad I did not have t buy it by the pound, the hardware is heavy duty beyond words. I highly recommend you call Richard K0XG for all your tower hardware needs.

Best and most reliable way to rotate big antennas 
|
Time owned: more than 12 months
|
I have had a K0XG rotating tower sytem moving my 180 foot Rohn 55 for 5 years. It works. It lasts. I don't see how anyone could do it better.
I had a problem that was not the fault of the system. When I inadvertantly left the door of the system relay water tight box open, my sprinkler system soaked everything in the relay box every day for a month before I discovered the "problem". The system still worked, but the relays got very rusty. I obtained new relays from K0XG and he guided me through understanding how they should be installed. So they were replaced. This was more than 2 years after the sale. He does provide excellent customer service. He doesn't mind taking the time to explain how the system operates.
I have used Hy-Gain and Yaesu rotators in the past. Although they were designed and used for a lesser magnitude of performance, they were not as reliable as my K0XG Rotating Tower System. It's the energizer bunny of ham antennas movers. It keeps on turning and turning and turning . . . . . when I want it to - even in stiff winds.
When my ship comes in again I'm going back to K0XG Systems.
