I bought mine from Tessco.
It was $500+: more than well worth it.
Thanks for the post Marlon.

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] climbing belt ** IMPORTANT**
One other important point, NEVER borrow or lend a tower belt/harness
from or to someone else.
Your LIFE is on the line.
If you lend your belt/harness to someone you do not know what may
have happened to it while it
was
being used by someone else. They DO break!
Your LIFE is on the line.
If you borrow a belt/harness you have no idea of the history of the
belt. They DO break!
Your LIFE is on the line.
NEVER FREE CLIMB. You must be attached to the tower AT ALL TIMES!
DO NOT RISK YOUR LIFE!
If you cannot purchase and use your own belt/harness, you should not
climb at all. It is that
simple.
I have had close Ham friends DIE due to PREVENTABLE tower accidents.
I was a part of a serious tower accident when I was 16 (I have the
scar to prove it).
I have climbed for 32 years. All the way to 1000 feet.
We have read about Hams becoming SK because of PREVENTABLE mistakes
on towers.
Please, please take the advise of the professionals here on this list.
This is a VERY serious issue. Your LIFE is on the line.
Please be safe.
73!
