Can anyone give me a good estimate of what it might cost to install
100'-150' feet of Rohn 45G or 55G tower, complete
with guy wires, brackets,concrete etc.?

I know I could go price each itty-bitty piece of hardware from a catalog or
website, but since many of you have no doubt already installed systems, I
thought I might ask the group.

If you wanted to add price of concrete and any professional labor employed,
that would be appreciated too.

I've helped (as groundcrew) install a couple Rohn 100' towers for an
ex-employer of mine so have a general idea what's involved in getting it in
the air, but aside from that, know little about the amount of concrete,
price of tower crew for a day
or overall cost of parts.

Up until  now I've always bought old n' used Delhi 48-56' self supporting
towers. Thinking seriously of moving w/i the next 2-3 years and want to GO
BIG!

Any help, hints, etc. much appreciated.
