Yeah, we’ve done it a handful of times now, 190’ is the tallest we’ve done in one pick, just used a lot bigger crane .

Re: [AFMUG] Take one down, put one up.
I don't like the tip-top of an SSV, too skinny. Which is why the 100' at our office is topped with a 4N. And it held up in a tornado. Money well spent.

Re: [AFMUG] Take one down, put one up.
I realize at <200 ft it doesn’t need lighting, but what about paint? I’ve noticed an unpainted SSV can be damn near invisible against the sky. Hazard for cropdusters.

Re: [AFMUG] Take one down, put one up.
That really depends on locations I would think .. I’m not familiar with US based regulations on this but in other countries you sometimes have to put lighting and/or paint on under 200ft Just suggesting that each location a tower goes should be verified as it’s awful damn expensive go back later and paint a tower ;) What’s really funny I recall at previous job is we had a paint a tower (190’) before it could be put up … nothing around that tower for probably 50 miles .. and we had to put strobe on top too We put up another 190’ tower that’s on a circular approach path to a municipal airport and nothing was required!! The airport is about 5-6 miles away... > On Oct 24, 2016, at 12:50 PM, Ken Hohhof wrote: > > I realize at <200 ft it doesn’t need lighting, but what about paint?

Re: [AFMUG] Take one down, put one up.
No, it’s a beefy crane, I think capacity is somewhere around 16,000lbs and 140’? The other crane we use is a beast though, the ‘permit before travel’ kind.

Hey Guys, Sorry for the delay, took me a minute to gather the totals. It’s going to throw you guys off probably as I’ve got some great deals on some stuff, especially crane, but here goes. Rohn SSV – 160’ 9 through 2 – $12,500 approx. Excavation, backfill, jet, and rock – $1,325 Concrete – $1,365 Crane – $420 (Lower old, lift new) _ Total – $ 15,610, or $16,000 approx.

I would have thought the crane would be much more. I thought those guys had a minimum charge just to get the thing out.
