Somewhere on line I found a Rohn tower calculator, from which I figured that I would have to use 65G for an unguyed 60ft. tower to hold my 3el. SteppIR (obviously bigger than a 13B2). I don't recall how much concrete that needed, but I agree with others who say that the size of the base is not the limiting factor here: it's the crumple-resistance of the tower itself.

I'm thinking of putting up about 60' of Rohn 25...for
"inverted V" support and a 13B2 on top, that's it. Any suggestions of how deep the hole should be? I'd
like it to be Free-standing if possible...I'd like a
few ideas.
