[TowerTalk] Remove Tower Base

[john at kk9a.com]

How large is the base and why do you need to remove it?  Once I removed a 
small base 3' x 3' x 3' using a large backhoe which easily dug it up  There 
is also a jackhammer attachment for backhoes that can be used to break up 
larger bases.   I have sold several properties and left the base with no 
issues, however the for the last home that I sold (P40A) the owner requested 
that the bases be removed.  Instead I discounted the price slightly and they 
can remove it at their convenience.   Another option is to jackhammer it to 
below ground level and put dirt on top to cover up the base.

I need to remove my concrete tower base. I have heard there is a compound 
that
can be put into holes that have drilled in the concret that will expand 
break
it apart. Does anyone know what the solution is and where to find it.
