[TowerTalk] re Tower

[Rob Atkinson, K5UJ]

Those photos of the 25G takedown and the raising of the 45G were great and 
well done.   The job was well done too and I know on a major project such as 
that it is very very difficult to think of everything, and very easy to sit 
back, look at the photos and comment.  But, having said that, I must 
question the placement of the tower insulator.  It looks to me to be at 
ground level and I would have misgivings about it being that close to dirt 
as I'd suspect possible problems with drainage, and water pooling.  I would 
have anchored the bottom of it into a concrete pier, raising it a couple of 
feet above grade.

73,
