    I've been following the thread and I'm not confused. Everyone has stated 
their opinions and readers can interpret them. 

    I don't know why someone would say that it should cease ASAP. Most 
threads die a natural death without much encouragement.

    Sorry - the horse is already out of the barn. 

    Your intent was to have a reality check on a proposed installation. I 
think that you got enough input to know that what your proposed ain't gonna 
happen. No matter how much math an engineer throws at your situation, it's 
not going to change the fact that the Rohn stuff won't take it vis-a-vis your 
proposed installation. Time to go to Plan B.

    TowerTalk's primary purpose in being is to help keep people out of 
trouble when it comes to tower and antenna installations and that's what 
happened.

    Why? You don't have anything to apologize for. You asked a question and 
got some answers. It's up to each TowerTalkian to decide if the information 
is credible or not. 

    I think we all learned a bit from this discussion so it was bandwidth 
well spent IMO.
