[Towertalk] Hygain Hytower

[Chris BONDE]

With somepeople using the crane to help put up the tower, why pour 
the  oncrete pad?
I have seen some large blocks of concrete put in the gound with a crane to 
hold various traffic control lights.  Now most of these lights are off to 
the side of the block, so they should hold a number of towers.  Probably an 
adaptor for the cast in bolts would be all that is reuired.

Just a thought
