In most cases the tower manufacturers will specify the foundations,
guys, etc., to be used for a given load, wind speed, etc.
If you don't have those specifications (e.g., because the tower cannot
be identified, or the manufacturer is no longer in business, or because
it's a home-brew tower), I would say that the right way to do it is to
consult an engineer. I'm not sure that a Web site can provide the needed
information.
