Luso dream crankup tower for sale
I decided against installing a second Luso tower on my property as we might be travelling more than previously planned. So, I am selling a new never installed dream tower. I received this tower in 202

coax cable and crankup towers
Forget hardline on a crankup. It was designed for fixed installations. I would recommend Times Microwave LMR400UF or LMR600UF. 73 NJ0F

I think your LM-470 will handle it just fine. Just FYI I have a like new JK Hawk as well as a JK WARC yagi for 30/17/15m that we removed from an estate if you have any interest. Just drop me an email.
