[TowerTalk] US Towers TX-455 questions

[Kelly Jones]

Hello to the list,

I am contemplating putting up a US Towers TX-455 and wondered if there are 
any suggestions for minimum distance from the foundation of the house to 
the tower base.

My concern is that wind stress might be propagated down the tower to the 
base then to the house foundation.  The last thing I need is water pouring 
into the basement due to a cracked foundation.

On another note, I'm trying to decide whether or not to stack a 2 element 
40 with a F12 XR-5 on this tower.  Suggestions?  Advice? Good idea?  Bad 
idea?  Don't even think about it?

Thanks,
Kelly - N0VD
