Radio tower advice requested...

Hi - well Hurricane Dennis broke our tower in half (Memories 1490 - WECM in Milton, FL). Being fairly new to broadcasting - I was curious if anyone had advice on getting it replaced or being able to have a temporary tower?

We had a 190' unipole tower - that was supposedly replaced in 1995. What wind speed do they usually handle? I'm kind of surprised it broke in the middle.

If anyone can recommend a good company in my area or any other information - please let me know. I wasn't sure if there was any type of new technology out there I should incorporate into the new tower for either signal range or lightning.

I hope everyone in Dennis' path did ok.

Thanks,
