KF7RSF Gateway out of service indefinitely (months)
Woke 4 days ago to find my crank-up tower bent at both overlaps. Storm on the 25 had done me in. Winds were only predicted to gusts of 35-40 knots, but must have had a rogue one that did the damage. Took days to find someone that could use a man-lift to attach a pull-down cable and force the sections to telescope. Down now, insurance has agreed to replace the tower. Same model is still made by Tashjian Towers, so should be a bolt together replacement.
