The premier MA-Series crank-up Tubular Towers are designed to be both safe and neighbor friendly. The slender design gives a clean, flagpole-like appearance.
MA-Series towers are completely self-supporting only when used with accessory MARB or MAB Series bases. The MARB Series rotor base allows the entire tower and antenna to be rotated from the base (rotor not included). This provides for easy rotor maintenance plus emergency hand rotation of the entire tower and antenna.
The MA-550MDP, 770MDP and 850 MDP models include a heavy duty motor drive with positive pull down. The MDP models provide motorized raising and lowering of the tower. A remote control unit (RMC-1000) accessory is available to allows raising and lowering from your ham shack or other remote location.
All models without motor drives come standard with manual hand winches which have load actuated brakes for maximum safety. This feature prevents the winch from free-wheeling and causing injury to you or your installation in the event that you lose your grip during raising or lowering.
All steel used at US Tower conforms to ASTM specifications. All welding is done by certified factory personnel. All of our towers are factory tested by trained personnel before leaving the plant.
