[TowerTalk] mounting a new tower on an existing concrete base

[Peter]

Here @ PI4CC we have placed two towers of 15 meter freestanding on a bunker. We have drilled 50 cm deep and used a chemical glue to ensure it. Some pictures are at
http://www.pi4cc.nl/tips/anker/index.htm We drille drilled 3 holes. 1 for each leg o the tower.

We hired a company to do the job and paided $ 150 for 6 holes + glue
