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:

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!!!
