Alex --

      One hundred feet of Rohn 55G at 70 MPH will take 34.6 square feet.  All
other heights and wind speeds will decrease the wind load.  What county do
you live in for wind speed zone?

     A prop pitch is the only thing short of a commercial ($$$) rotator.

     All it takes is cubic money.
