Bond your copper grounding wire (which comes into the concrete
through the top)to the rebar cage. or run 20 feet of the copper wire
around through the concrete, as long as it's totally encased.

I ask: What difference does doing the above make when the tower
itself is already set in the concrete, whether it be literally in the
concrete (like setting the first section of 25g in the hole) or the
anchor bolts set 3' into concrete for a crank up tower?

IN that case, no difference..

Sometimes, though, you want a separate wire (maybe it's easier to hook
to a panel that has coax connectors on it)
