Re: [AFMUG] How far from a tower is safe?

dangerous area. So IMO, don't worry about a specific distance, just say if you're working at the tower then put on a helmet. -- Original Message -- From: "Chuck McCown" <ch...@wbmfg.com> To: af@afmug.com Sent: 3/15/2018 12:40:05 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] How far from a t

Re: [AFMUG] How far from a tower is safe?

Yes. Stand up wind. If guyed, stand 2/3 of the way out of the guy length. If not 20 percent of the tower height on up wind side. Of course I just made all that up. I usually like to stand next to something I can jump under, like my truck or trailer. On Wed, Mar 14, 2018, 10:25 AM Jay Weekley

I've heard there is a formula to determine how far from a tower someone can be to be safe from objects that are dropped. You know, wrenches etc. Can anyone give me some quick guidance?
