[TowerTalk] Concrete Bin Blocks for Guy Anchors

[Tom WA9WSJ]

 Hi Roger,
This is exactly what I did 18 years ago! I've had very good luck with this method. Although mine are 6 feet long, only because that's what was available and for $25.00 each at that time, I just did it.
Check about half way down the page here:

 I've been thinking about guy anchors for a tower I'll be putting up next spring. The tower will be 150 feet of Rohn 55 and it will require 3 triple guys.
Instead of poured concrete for the guy anchors I've been thinking about using some of those Concrete Bin Blocks which are 2'x2'x4'. I'd bury them and attach the guy ends to the steel loops imbedded into the blocks.
Does anyone have thoughts on them ?
