[TowerTalk] Rohn 45 Wind Load Capability

Looking at the guying sheets for Rohn 45, 70 mph wind, and 70' tower, I
think I see the load capability is about 15 sq ft for "round member"
antennas.  That seems like a pretty low capability, though all my previous
experience has been with self supporting towers.  Am I reading the sheet
correctly?  What approximate wind load can such an installation support if I
am reading the Rohn drawing in error?
