In winter in MA (wind chill -30 last night), my screw anchors will hold any tower up till the steel fails. When the ground thaws in the spring it becomes much less secure. The screw anchor failure I

What has been said so far doesn't give much help to Bob, AD5VJ, in actually designing his antenna. First, if anything I say is contradicted by GM3SEK, L. Cebik, or many others, listen to them! :) Sec

Hi Jose, It looks to me like you can go at least to 65'. If it is reasonable to go higher than that on your lot, you may be able to get a variance. "Seems the city has a 35 foot limit on towers and a
