Subject: [TowerTalk] Unsafe Climbing Practices


Kirk,

Any trained tower climber will be very concerned about the lack of safe tower climbing practices evident in your photographs.

Here's an excellent reference for safe tower climbing practices:

http://www.blm.gov/nhp/efoia/wo/fy06/im2006-078attach1.pdf

A quick review of the manual will uncover multiple unsafe practices evident in your photographs, including (at least): unsafe climbing surface, unsafe anchorage and unsafe clothing.

These disturbing photos should be a call to all of us to better understand and practice safe climbing.

Here are some photos of how K4JNY does it at 120 feet.
Yes, Jeff has no fear. I don't think I could do it.
Thanks to W4NZ for taking the photos.

I know the answer to this question is lurking here someplace. I need to repair a guy's KLM 4-40 feedpoint. Can you reach all of that from the tower/mast or am I going to have to be prepared to take the antenna down? It's been over 10 years since I saw one of these up-close and I forget the answer :)
