Gary.... prepare yourself for yet another problem. After you eventually get 
approval of your tower without antennas the way the plans were approved, 
when you wish to put antennas on it they may require you to submit another 
plan (or a modification) for approval. On the other hand, if you simply 
smile and nod and put your antennas on the tower now like he wants and get 
the engineer to sign off, you may be better off.  Food for thought.
