If your tower is the equivalent of R25, and only 30', there's not much
you can do to it to really overstress it, unless you try real hard.
But if you really want it straight AND plumb, consider digging out the
appropriate side of the foundation and letting the the concrete adjust
itself, and then backfilling it back in.
At that point it will become what you want it to be, merely an anti-sink
device.

Thanks for all replys.
OK, first, I will build a Gin Pole...I think it is not a problem.
Second, seems that my verticality errors are "into" the tolerance range,
so,
I think I can do some corrections before tighten the bolts...I put
some pressure in one of the temporary guys and make the 2nd section plumb.
In general the tower (only 2 sections now) is very stiff with "My temporary
guy ropes"...I climb to the top of the 20ft to attach the line with
weight (plumb bob) in the center of the tower and I dont feel any movement.
My questions is:
Can I try to make the tower plumb without adding to much stress to tower
legs???
