We are getting some strange receiver noises (intermittent 
pops/cracks/static) as well as sudden losses of sensitivity on our 2 
meter machine.  This is what the top of our tower looks like:

The thin white vertical is our Hustler G7.  The other antenna is what 
I'm asking about.  I know it's probably a late 70's era UHF TV 
broadcast antenna...our site was used by the county gov't for a TV 
translator site before it was abandoned.  It needs to come off, but 
how much does this thing weigh?  I don't want to tie a ginpole to it, 
loosen all eight bolts and find out it weighs 300 
pounds....especially if gravity suddenly takes over!!!
