What type of antennas would you like your tower to support? 
The larger the antenna, the stronger the tower must be. Check the windload rating for your antenna, and compare it with the tower. Make sure that the tower is rated at wind loads of 87 mph or greater. Most manufacturers sell towers rated at only 50 mph. However, no location in the country is rated below 70 mph. All of GME's towers are rated at 87 mph, which provides accurate information about the strength of the tower.

What part of the country do you live in? What is the weather like?
Various parts of the country experience stronger wind gusts than others. Use the chart on the previous page to determine the wind load rating for your area. Also, customers living along the coast would want to make sure that the tower materials will hold up to the salty environment. Many already avoid this problem by using Glen Martin's anodized aluminum tower, since it’s manufactured to be corrosion and rust free!

Consider the workmanship & quality of the tower. 
Many tower manufacturers offer a reduced price product; however, quality is lacking. As the old saying goes, ‘you get what you pay for’. Only Glen Martin Engineering, Inc. goes the extra mile to manufacture a tower that is not only strong, but durable as well. Get the best buy for your dollar!
