Leaders in Ham Radio Tower Installs
For amateur radio enthusiasts, having the right tower is essential for signal strength, DXing, and contesting. Our team—led by Ray Higgins (W2RE) and Bobby (KC2UPN)—has decades of experience installing ham radio towers of all sizes, including specialized rotating towers for maximum performance.
How and why rotate a tower?
Rotating Towers: Full 360° Power and Performance
Rotating towers with guy wires are becoming increasingly popular in both ham radio tower installations and commercial tower projects. The ability to rotate high-gain antennas a full 360 degrees allows operators to maximize coverage, improve signal strength, and adapt quickly to changing conditions.
As the photos and videos above illustrate, rotating towers are not just functional—they’re engineered for performance and reliability. Our team has installed these systems for a wide range of clients, including:
Ham radio operators seeking stronger DX and contesting reach
Commercial entities that need flexible, directional coverage
Stock trading RF experimenters using large, high-frequency trading antenna systems for speed and reliability
At Radio Echo Communications, we’ve done it all—from backyard ham towers to mega rotating tower sites with massive HF arrays. No project is too big or too complex for our experienced crew.

Commercial Tower Installation Services
At Radio Echo Communications, we specialize in commercial tower installation services that meet the demanding requirements of government agencies, aerospace leaders, and private enterprises. Our team has successfully completed projects for NASA, Homeland Security, and Boeing, proving our ability to deliver at the highest level.
Much of this work was performed beginning in under our former name, Hudson Valley Towers, before rebranding as Radio Echo Communications. The experience and expertise we gained during these projects continue to guide the world-class service we provide today.
From Rohn 55 tower installs for Homeland Security to 106-foot crank-up towers designed for NASA weather experiments, we provide precision engineering and professional installation. One notable NASA project involved integrating advanced weather instruments onto a tower system to help improve and speed up airline traffic—a powerful example of how our towers serve both innovation and safety.
We handle every detail: site prep, tower erection, and long-term maintenance. Whether your project involves commercial communications, aviation research, or public safety, our team brings the expertise and proven track record you need.
