Hi, Stan,
This is going to be variable based on where your live (wind code,
engineering and permitting) and what the antenna wind load is.
For example, here is a self standing 45' 45G kit:
http://www.3starinc.com/rohn_45g_45_foot_self_supporting_tower_r-45ss045.html.
Look at the bottom of the page for a table of towers, wind speed and wind
loads. This is the tallest unguyed 45G that the manufacturer specifies.
$1700 + shipping, maybe another $800.
Figure an additional $1,000, at least, for engineering, permitting and
construction costs. It goes up from there, but it appears that your QTH is
pretty far inland, so you might be .
So, ballpark as a low estimate if you do everything yourself, $3500. Before
I did any research, I guessed $5k. You might be able to get in for less.
