You can find an online Rohn catalog from 2004 here:

OHN_Catalog.pdf

You can also find info on your counties wind speed ratings here:

My quick look through the catalog does not show any specifications for
unguyed, unbracketed 45G, but I may have missed it.

Good luck with your installation, and be safe!
