Abstract: An elevated equipment holding apparatus includes a pin; and a latch plate that engages the pin. The latch plate includes a tortuous path that directs the pin to a latching point after the latch plate is raised and then lowered a first time, and frees the pin from the latch point after the latch plate is raised and lowered a second time. The elevated equipment holding apparatus includes a capsule for holding equipment. One of the pin or the latch plate is attached to the capsule. The other of the pin or latch plate attached to a body at an elevated position. The body, in various embodiments, can be a tower, a monopole.

Abstract: A cluster mounting system is provided for supporting a plurality of transmission line or coaxial cable runs in a non-interfering manner on a microwave transmission tower. The system uses a cluster mount member comprising a single strip of metal formed in such a way as to define a plurality of substantially flat mounting surfaces adjoining each other. The mounting surfaces are angularly disposed with respect to adjoining surfaces in such a way that cable carrying hangers may be affixed to each of the surfaces without contacting each other or the cable carried therein. The ends of the cluster mount member are provided with outwardly extending arms through which the cluster mount member and the plurality of hangers and cable supported thereupon may be rigidly mounted directly onto a leg of the transmission tower or a separate support member provided on the tower.
