[WISPA] Idleaire Shutdown

2010-02-26 Thread Stuart Pierce
http://www.idleaire.com/ Idleaire apparently has shut down operations, but grapevine may be that they sold out. If you are close to one of their truckstop locations, you may be able to get Idleaire or the new companies internet connection. Maybe even the truckstop's hotspot service.

I'm not sure why they show the finished height at 195' Each section SHOULD be 20'. I love the Rohn towers. My NOC has a 9N. This appears to be a 10N. For my 180' + tower, I dug a hole 5 feet deep and 17' x 17'. We laced 6,000 lbs of steel with double saddle wires every foot in every

The crane makes for a very fast erection. We put our 195' SSV up with just 3 picks. Less than 2 hours of actual crane time. Worth every penny to me. Marco Coelho On Fri, Feb 26, 2010 at 10:29 AM, Mike m...@aweiowa.com wrote: Ooops sorry.  Brand new you have a great deal!  After we built our

Yep, but I have pictures to prove a madman, and a slavish ground man, using a gin pole, and some ropes and pulleys can erect one in 12 hours. My best advice on preparations for planting a big Rohn tower is to have a good template. Placement of the huge J bolts on a good template while pouring

What confuses me about this tower is the drawing does not say it is a 9N base. I am wondering if it is a special built tower by ROHN just for this project. Guy told me he seen the receipt for this tower and it was $42,000!!! Still new and on his asphalt driveway never assembled. Wonder if I can

At any given point in time our schedule has at least 60+ pending stops scattered over a 2,000+ square mile territory, some that need to be done ASAP, other that are somewhat urgent, and still others just when we're in the area. Certain stops require certain vehicles and others don't. I think
