Go to the web site of the Santa Anita A's of Arcadia, California at www.santaanitaas.org . On the home page put your cursor on "Technical Reference", my name will appear below. Click on it and it will bring up a menu of technical articles. There are several there about rebuilding the transmission tower. They are all PDF files. You are welcome to download and print them out.
