Maybe. What's your county windspeed? What's your state and county? You
can look it up on our website under Tech Notes - <A
HREF="www.championradio.com">www.championradio.com</A>
If your guying and housebracketing are per factory specs for your
windspeed, then your chances are pretty good based on your windspeed.
Overguying won't buy you anything since the typical limiting factor to tower
capacity is leg compression strength - not guys. Another housebracket is of
no value.
