Hi Dan,

20G is a lighter version of 25G.  They take the same tower accessories.  One
way to tell the difference between a 20G section and a 25G section is to
count the number of horizontal members.  There are seven in a 20G section
and eight in a 25G section.  Rohn says 20G is good for 2 square feet of
antenna only and is primarily used to hold TV receiving antennas.  They
recommend 25G for bigger loads.
