Naw - pick and shovel. Takes a couple of hours. I'm pretty sure the rotator is mast-mounted on the top mast. You'll need a mast-mounting bracket. Hy-Gain and Yaesu both have them. Cheers, Steve K7LXC

According to the Rohn catalog (if you don't have one, they're five bucks from TOWER TECH), the base is 2x2x4 feet deep. It takes .70 yds of concrete and four 3/4" vertical pieces of rebar. The guy an

Obvious solution is 4-way guying. The use of 4 guys reduces the 80% rule to 57%, or 96 feet. But 4 way guying also allows you to put the guys out at 120 feet. So you will be in very good shape with 4

I think your calculations assume the tower must be centered in the lot. If you offset it to the 1/3 point, you would have 128 feet for the guys. Probably obvious, but you don't know if you don't ask.

It minimizes the tower twisting forces especially at the base. Recommended by Rohn. Especially advantageous with a tall tower with a big load; lets the guys do the work. Ive been on the top of my tow

No one will be able to answer your question without knowing the load you intend to put on the tower and without doing the engineering work. You definitely can have less than 80% guy anchor radius, ho

I agree that the pier pin lets the guys do the work and it is the best base for large tower. I don't think the pier pin base will do anything to minimize tower twisting. The best way to stop the twis

The tower will still move but it is not twisting as in winding up to a point of possible fracture. The commercial site over on the next hill had 140' of 45G with the base buried in concrete and a bun
