Is a gin pole something one could construct (well, everything is depending
on how skilled you are) or is it a purchase-only item?
How much would one cost to purchase?

Why would you have used a crane to stack it if you had not had the fire
truck?
Normally you stack by sections using a gin pole. It is very dangerous to
stack a Rohn25 in multi sections.
Just curious

Mike,
It was a pleasure talking with you at MUM.
We have a 105 foot Ladder truck that used to be in service at Springfield IL
FD. It has a lifting capacity of 750 LBS. We do not use it for site
survey's, we have two bucket vans for that. It is a portable tower, and we
utilized it as a tower, last year when we had two towers damaged by
tornados.
We had it refurbished by a truck center near her, and it is up to NFPA
standards on the ladder operation.
There is not a generator yet, as we are looking for a diesel generator. (all
of our generators are gas) It has around 35K miles, and it is a 78 model.
I will post a pic when I get in the office later today.
I have used it's lifting capacity to stack a 120' Rohn 25G tower in two
sections. It was really helpful in stacking that tower in an afternoon
without a crane expense.
