I was able to get the AB Chance (now part of Hubble) 5' anchors from Greybar Electric. I think they're in most larger metro areas. They were not in stock in the Raleigh store, but they had them shipp

I need some anchors for a UniHat vertical would the 30" models at Mc*-Carr be good enough for this type of load ? 1400 lbs certainly seems to be in line with the guy line they recommend. I also have

I'm planning on using earth anchors for 100 feet of Rohn 25. The soil at my place is pretty hard and somewhat rocky. I'm thinking that regular earth anchors (screw in type) are going to be difficult

I've used a couple different types of anchors and they work very well. I've never seen a place with soil composition that allows one to screw in an anchor. Maybe if you have 6 feet of topsoil or sand

Joslyn Manufacturing also makes earth anchors for utility poles. Personally, these are made for utility poles which are a different animal than tall towers but to each their own. check out their webs

Do you live in an area that requires a building permit for such things? If it falls down, will anything get hurt (other than the tower and antenna)? If the answer to both questions is NO, then you ca

Those that use cheap, painted earth anchors from the local hardware store or farm supply should ensure that they erect the tower far enough from their house so that when the anchor fails it will not

Larry, the Farmtek anchors do appear to be very similar to the Rohn Anchors. They are not hot dip galvanized so that is one difference. What we are seeing here is the cost impact of a value added pro
