We have a triangular Antenna tower that is about 40 years old and stands about 30' high. I climbed 1/2 up to repair that security light that was mounted on it, but was Leary about climbing the entire height to work on the antenna.
Should I be concerned about climbing all the way to the antenna ? its not rusted out, but I am just concerned about how well its anchored in concrete.
I was not there when it was erected, so I don't know if they secured it w/cables while attaching the upper sections and antenna.
Are those antennas designed to hold the weight of a 200 lb person at the top ?
Thanks
What would make it harder to climb than the other types ?
Is has cross rungs every 18". Climbing it was easy, just worried if it will hold up if someone climbs to the top to work on the antenna.
