Hi Jim, Those part numbers you quoted --- as well as the general shape of the tower --- sound an awful like parts of am old Delhi Antenna Towers-brand tower that I've had for some 27 years here...!
Indeed, I use one to elevate my Hy-Gain TH3 Mk 3 yagi: 48', self-supporting, with a taper from wide at the base, to narrow at the very top. Each individual section is 8' long, too... The part numbers that I have on hand here are similar to those that you quoted, but slightly different: ex., the individual factory part numbers used in my 48-footer are DMX7 (bottom section), through to DMX2T (top). Your part numbers may well be indicative of new numbers assigned to Delhi products as a consequence of Wade Antennas purchasing the company awhile back. Both outfits were / are Canadian-based, here in southern Ontario. Click onto this website for more dope on Wade: http://www.westernequipment.com/Docs/DMXN%20Announcement.pdf I hope this helps! The old Delhi's were VERY rugged systems --- I couldn't be more pleased here with mine...and judging by what's on the Wade Antennas website, they're even better now... Good luck, Jim --- I hope this helps you... ~73!~ Eddy VE3CUI - VE3XZ ***************************************** ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Wilhite" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "AM Radio Discussion List" <amradio@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Saturday, November 08, 2008 12:06 PM Subject: [AMRadio] Tower ID > I hope someone here can identify this tower.
