He's mixing steel guys and Phillystran, which is fine, but 5/8" 
steel...?  5/8"?!  With three star mounts?  Wow, he was expecting 
Hurricane Katrina.  I don't like the unguyed 20-ft of tower 
(presumably with a big antenna on top) above the top guys, Rohn 55 or not.

I have two 140-ft towers on about an acre and a half, of my 2.5 acre property.

Oh well, different strokes...!
