I have two 40 ft. bare telephone poles that will be installed
to support wire antennas for 80m. Each will be installed 5 ft.
into the ground. I will use wooden wedges around the hole to
get the pole vertical then fill the hole around the pole with
pea gravel. Does anyone have any experience installing
telephones? Does this sound like a reasonable approach? Any
helpful suggestions? Thanks.
