We have erected towers in the United States from the rocky coast of Maine to the sandy coastline of California and overseas. We have erected towers on the ground, on rooftops, on mountaintops and in swamps, and can handle heights in excess of 1300 feet. Our crews have worked in locations ranging from the dense, tropical jungles of Panama to the frozen tundra of Alaska to the Everglades Swamp in Florida.

We have experience in doing complete turn key systems involving all aspects of antenna siting, design, fabrication, erection, on site acceptance testing, and checkout, including siting, design, and installation of U.S. Navy shore communications and other Department of Defense systems at a wide variety of locations. Our personnel have also worked directly or indirectly for NATO along with the individual countries of Canada, Denmark, Norway and Taiwan. In addition, USTS has performed tower and antenna work for the US DoD military services overseas in Italy, Spain, Azores, Scotland, Guam, and other sites. We have also been involved in electromagnetic interference and radio frequency interference surveys and have provided solutions to EMI/RFI problems at a variety of military installations.

Safety is a constant concern of USTS. Not only do we subscribe to and follow all applicable rules, regulations and advisories of the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Departments of Commerce and Labor, and the Federal Highway Administration; but we have actively been working for some time, in cooperation with the Federal ommunications Commission, to improve the electromagnetic radiation standards and compliance practices for tower personnel safety. Our company constantly monitors safety practices and procedures. USTS is an active and supporting member of the National Association of Tower Erectors (NATE). Our employees have chaired and served on the NATE Safety Committee and work closely with Federal and State OSHA departments in developing workable safety standards for our industry. In addition, USTS has in place its own Alcohol and Drug Policies which include random screening of all employees.

USTS personnel with a broad mix of talents and experience, provide an unusually broad base of expertise for designing, installing, deinstalling and maintaining antennas of almost every conceivable type. We have extensive experience with medium and high frequency fixed and rotatable antennas, including dipoles, log periodics, conicals and biconicals, vertical and conical monopoles, fans and curtains. We have built, installed, and repaired many types of AM and FM radio and television broadcast antennas. We have also built, installed, aligned and serviced a wide variety of large and small microwave antennas, including tropospheric, satellite and point-to-point link dish antennas. We have restored antennas and towers from severely deteriorated condition to a fully functioning and operational system. We have the capability to make mechanical, electrical and structural upgrades and repairs to both towers and antennas.

USTS personnel are certified and experienced in the installation, maintenance and repair of all common tower lighting systems. USTS is an authorized agent and a maintenance and repair representative for several manufacturers.

USTS is currently under contract for Inspections, Repair and Maintenance Services nationally to both the Department of Transportation (FAA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). USTS is a preferred third party organization by Andrew Corporation as a qualified HF antenna erection contractor for all Andrew Granger HF antenna products.

USTS is a factory certified organization for the installation of transmission lines, waveguide and connectors by both Andrew and Celwave (Radio Frequency Systems). The service department technicians maintain individual certifications as well as refresher courses as new products are introduced.
