Hi all!!

Could I have you opinions as to using a telephone pole for a tower.

The height or the pole is 50', with another 10 ' in the ground and, it
is approximately 3 to 4 feet wide at the bottom.  It will be supporting
a rotor, 22 element 70 cm beam, 15 element 2m beam, and a 2m 70 cm
vertical.

Does anyone have any idea if this is feasible and if so does more of the
pole need to be in the ground.

Thank you

Bryan Fields, KB9MCI
