I too find it kind of funny when a ham decides to spend thousands of dollars
on tower sections,rotors, antennas and cabling plus the time investment but
then will skimp on concrete or rebar. As my grandpa would say "penny wise
but dollar foolish"
The "other" stuff isn't a large portion of the total cost of the project
and I would select a cheaper antenna or something ON the tower rather then
make the tower installation a compromise. One can always change the antenna
when the budget allows.
