    Current Rohn specs will typically let you go  up 16 feet or so above the 
top housebracket. This is much different than the  old days before the TIA-222 
Tower Standard. 
 
    I don't understand the logic but the spec will  let you put 34 feet above 
a 66-foot housebracket, albeit with 1.7 sq.ft. of  capacity @ 70 MPH.
