Hi Jerry,

I have a Universal Tower in my back yard and am happy with it. As it is only
part Universal (and part Heights) I decided to put up a few guy wires (4) 
with
it. (Makes it stand 130 MPH wind with 20 sqf wind load). The Universal 
pieces
fit very well together and I find it very plausible you will be able to do 
the
gin-pole job. My tower has a total high of 85'.
