Too much concrete base showing with 9'x9' base slab brought to surface? Why not 
a simple box a foot or so bigger than tower footprint for the last 6 inches or 
so. Just backfill the rest of the area with good soil over the remaining slab, 
plant grass and nobody will know the difference. A simple square out of 2x6's 
will suffice. Place over the pour at last moment and the concrete slump will 
hold it in place, not allowing the box to float up, and finish it after it sets 
up for 15 minutes or so. It'll give you a small surface slab over the unformed 
big base.
  Just a thought,
