    There is a Rohn pamphlet called "Manufacturer's Technical Information for 
Bracketed or Self Supporting Towers". I used to have a bunch but have mailed 
them out over the years so don't have one handy I can send you. Give me your 
fax number and I can fax it to you. 

    Forty-feet of bracketed 45G needs brackets at 15 and 30 feet but will 
handle 36.7 sq.ft. @ 70 MPH. 

    Your memory is pretty good. The maximum distance in the specs is 34 feet 
which will give you a capacity of 5.5 sq.ft. @ 70 MPH or 2 sq.ft. @ 80 MPH. 

Cheers,
