Just saying I thought on a Rohn SSV once you got to the upper sections 1-5 they
were straight and all the same face width, but actually there’s a bit of taper
to them.

I think he's talking about mounting radios directly on the tower legs, using
the radio's mount built in elevation adjustment, rather than a standoff mount
which is normally needed on a tapering self supporting tower.

Somone pointed out to me that the top sections of an SSV are ALMOST
straight, not quite. Close enough for government work though.

What about Rohn 55, 65, etc. You can even get creative and use the top
50ft of a self supporter where it is straight so the legs are much further
apart. I like those towers.
Thank you,

Yeah, I forgot about needing to be bracketed to a building to get over
20 feet. Back to the drawing board.
