What is the purpose of grounding each tower leg? I have not done this. My
towers have tapered pier pin bases and I have lines of ground rods
connected to two legs. Even with a straight base I find it hard to believe
that connecting one leg to a fantastic ground system would be
insufficient.

Whether the 3 tower leg anchors are sufficient? I would hesitate to say,
They are close enough to each other that they "probably" act more like a
single, large ground, or electrode than multiple units
