I  believe the 45G is only rated for 40 or 50 feet self supporting with a  
small tribander.



Even in the smallest tribander would not be safe at 40-50 feet on  
freestanding Rohn 45 at the 90 MPH rating.  Even at 80 MPH rating no  tribander could be 
used.  It is only at the relatively useless rating of 70  MPH that a SMALL 
tribander could be used at 40 feet (5.1 sq ft).  It could  not safely be used at 
50 feet.
 
All the above is from the Rohn catalogue (2001).
