[TowerTalk] concrete

[Ed K0KL]

I waited a month before hanging my free standing tower. In the 
construction field where I worked
many years ago, forms were stripped after a few days, but the reinforced 
concrete was still supported
for up to a month.

I was told then that concrete was 90% cured after a month (4000# rated). 
Tower compression in
dirt probably not a problem, I'd wait for the anchors to cure though.

73! Ed K0KL
