Tower resonance measurements

I mentioned on the towertalk reflector that I had been trying to make accurate measurements of resonance in grounded towers with large antennas systems on them.  A number of people asked for the details.  So here they are: Download Some notes on measuring tower resonances .  These are only preliminary notes which give the general idea of what I'm about.  In due course they will be updated.
