A look at the tilt over tower project here at WD4PTJ

[@hamradiostation_M0UGE]

I have just bought a Versatower P60HD with no base included but I plan to do what you have. I currently have a 15 meter telescopic tilt over mast that is bolted to the house wall and sits upright in a purpose built frame , More infor on my QRZ page (M0UGE) next project is to get the Versatower mounted and working like the current mast - yours looks great well done !

How much force is on a raising cable and the base?

[@louisianaconservatives2304]

Where did you attach the winch cable to the tower?

Keith good video! Curious do you plan to leave the wench out in the weather or have a detach method to only attach it when needed? The only thing i saw which i would have changed is the nylon tie straps. I learned the hard way many years ago to use black nylon tie straps as they are UV light resistant and will last a lot longer than the white ones. A minor item but i suspect you can change that any time you want since you have a very cool tilt over design :) .

I am going to cover the wench with something. Haven’t decided what yet. I did also use electrical tape to attach cables to the tower in case the ties break

[@wramsey2656]

Good deal . I am coming up with a design similar to yours. Thx for sharing and please post any updates you have a good installation. God bless.

I also like the side mount for the other antenna!
