[TowerTalk] AB Chance anchor installation... How!?!

[David Gilbert]

You can get hard steel "pikes" at places like Home Depot or other home 
improvement stores.  They're about six feet long, just over an inch 
thick with a hexagonal cross section, pointed on one end and flattened 
on the other.  They sell for around $20 and are used for digging in hard 
ground.  You and your strongest buddy are far more likely to get a 
hernia than bend one.

Is this correct, and if so, how do I get ahold of a similar person in this area? I'm a VERY hands-on guy, but I will definitely pay somebody to twist these things in.
