[TowerTalk] Satelite dish post as guy anchor post.

[kk9a@arrl.net]

My home in Aruba has a steel post that was once used to support a large
satellite dish. Apparently when cable TV became available the dish was
removed.  The post is 7" diameter, 10' high and sits on a 4' square concrete
pad.  I am considering using this as a guy anchor post for a 70' tower.  The
location is perfect and I believe this post may be quite strong.  Does
anyone know how this may have been installed - concrete depth, etc..?

73,
