Rohn 25 would not work, you would be better off with 4.5" 15ft pipe non-pen and a separate non-pen for stiff arm, it would need to be angled toward the weight of the non-pen. I have a non-pen with 15ft 4.5" pipe, just cant remember brand name at this moment. Are you mounting on a roof or anywhere near a wall? Even some angle iron would work as a stiff arm.
