Looks very similar to the two 70 ft. towers we have at our club station here in 
Dallas at the Texas Instruments ARC. Ours has been up since the 1960's, very 
sturdy. Ours have tapered bottom sections and a couple of straight sections. 
The ends of the sections have the pads as shown in your pics.

You best bet is to post up msg on the Tower Talk mailing list at 
http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk 

Our club has been asked the same question of ours and no one was around when 
the towers were purchased. I worked at TI in 1970 and they were there then. It 
could be a Tristao Tower.

  Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Need help ID'ing a Tower


    I have posted pictures of this tower in the Photos section: 
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Repeater-Builder/photos/album/2113929203/pic/list.

  Anyone know who's make of tower this is? It's 90' total, Self supporter. The 
bottom face is 36" and tapers about 6" per section from there. There are 4 20 
foot sections and one 10 foot top section. 

  The bottom line is were trying to identify it so we can come up with a fair 
market value for it. It was to but put up for repeater service by the current 
owner, but now our group has the opportunity to buy it to put up at our 
repeater hub. Any input would be appreciated!!

  Thanks!
