Jon,
25G is pretty tough stuff: The 12 Element teledyne is 11.7 square feet, and
a 60 foot Rohn 25 will handle 20.3 square feet. THAT's not the problem!

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] what not to do in your tower
In the description for one of the earlier pictures, it states no expense was
spared for the tower construction. I would beg to differ. Those rings are
scary. Not to mention that 12 element LP is probably way over the rated
windload for the r25g at 60'. (No, I didn't look up the specs, but I might
have to out of curiosity now.)
