60 foot Rohn 25. He wants to use the old concrete in the ground  by using a 
new Rohn base plate and drilling 4 holes into the old concrete and adding large 
long bolts and using epoxy to hold them in. Does anyone have experience with 
this approach and any positive or negative comments. thanks van

    Yep, that's the way you do it. Rent an impact drill and bit and you're 
good to go. Drilling doesn't take long at all. The rental place probably has the 
industrial concrete epoxy you need too. BTW the epoxy is stronger than the 
concrete. People use this technique every day.
