[TowerTalk] antenna height vs hassle

[Alan NV8A (ex. AB2OS)]

That kind of thing is one reason I am planning to have a contractor or 
two bid for the job -- at least for all the excavation, rebar and 
concrete work: they should know the best way to do the job and may even 
be able to get the materials and the subcontractors for less than I 
could myself.
