Portable Military Mast System BlueSky AL3 3.5" 15M (49ft): Ham, Wifi, Weather

Description: This listing is for the 15 meter extremely heavy duty AL3 Lift Series Tripod Mast System manufactured by BlueSky Mast. For comparison of BlueSky's mast products: The AL1 is the lightest mast system with 2" thin wall aluminum poles. The AL2 has a more robust tripod construction. The AL2 2 inch ODmast poles are twice the wall thickness of the AL1, supporting almost double the maximum payload. The AL3 Center Mast Poles have 3.5 Inch OD poles, much, much larger and sturdier tripod, included winch lift, and can support the heaviest deployable payloads of all BlueSky Mast Systems. Last picture shows an AL2 tripod standing next to the AL3 tripod in this listing for size comparison. All specs and manuals are available to view on manufacturer's site. Up to 75 lb payload at 15M (49ft), rated for 90mph winds (or 145lbs at 8 meters) I have had one of these masts mounted on the side of a WV mountain in the rain, snow and direct sun for 3 years showing zero rust, corrosion or any sign of wear. The BlueSky Mast systems were designed and commonly used in the extreme environments of Iraq and Afghanistan. The items for sale show signs of use by the military with typical surface wear and scratches on the aluminum anodization, but there are no dents, bent or broken components, or other signs of wear that affect normal function. I have decided to sell the system in two cases instead of the one shown. Poles in one case and Tripod and accessories in the other. Two cases make the system easier to load by two people. One case will have 1 of 6 handles missing and possibly a bent but still functional latch. Normal wear and tear by the military folks.
