I may be moving from Central Texas to South Florida. I currently have 2 50' towers which I will not take. I would like to have a good hf beam and probably a wire dipole for 160-40 if I have at least an acre of land. Will a good crankup tower survive hurricane winds if lowered and installed properly? Can you even dig suffeciently to make a proper concrete base in south Fl? I have a standard duty Force 12 C3 beam now but they used to build ruggedized versions but I don't know now. Any suggestions appreciated. WB5OXQ
