Hey..
Nice antenna farm.
But you sure need a lot of room to lower that antenna.

Heck mine can tilt down...I've see that type of tower before, and thought about building one...From what I've read they are popular over seas in the UK...However, I don't think that one is no 80'... more like 40'...80' would be a monster to tilt.
Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

I've seen this video before. The cantilever design makes it easy to tilt but it looks like you would need to work of at least a 10ft stepladder to get to the feedpoint. It looks like 80ft to me with the pipe mast included.
