On subject of 45G being more than 25G.

ROHN BOOK:
80 FOOT TALL
25G   70MPH-15.7 SQ.FT.
45G   70MPH-15.3 SQ.FT.  
OR
100 FOOT TALL
25G   70MPH-15.0 SQ.FT.
45G   70MPH-14.2 SQ.FT.

Interesting that at 70MPH ratings the 25G has higher SQ.FT. ratings.  Go to
90MPH & 45G is better as we expect.  But there's no question the 45G wider
leg spacing adds stability when you climb'um.

PS:  if you don't have your ROHN book, call Steve & get one!
