[TowerTalk] Tower installtion question

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

Seminole County, FL was 100 MPH based on the old "fastest mile"
standard.  Without finding a new chart that uses "peak gust",
139 MPH would seem to be equivalent.  Requiring the calculations
or a PE certification for building permit is within reason under
PRB-1.

73,
