Maybe so, but most of the discussion has been about BX and 20 or 25G.  The staple
of a modest installation.    I think it is a pity that Rohn, for whatever reasons,
has chosen to provide so little information that anyone planning such an
installation should need to retain a PE in the first place.  In the second place,
a $250 fee for a PE stamp may simply break the ham radio budget of those dreaming
of a small tower and beam.

I don't know for certain what Shakespere would have said about engineers... but
I'll bet that if he had heard about a $250 fee for a stamp,  it would have been
similar to what he said about lawyers.  :-)
