I have used 65Gs at that height. Free standing.

I didn't say 55G, I wrote 65G... Would not even dream of trying to use 55G at
the height and the wind loading I have in mind.

I would highly recommend *against* using 55G free-standing at 50 feet. For an
omni and a panel it's fine. Not a 2' dish, especially not 11-24GHz. Been there,
done that. Customer installed it. Too much twisting in the wind.
We have a customer with 2x 2' dishes with radomes on 80' of free-standing 65G
and it has been fine.

I'm looking at the Rohn 65G (24" face width) for a 50-60 ft self supporting
application. The site may eventually need more wind loading. There is no room
for guy wires or anchors, just a single concrete block like foundation.
Anyone have a suggestion for 36" face width tower pieces that can be used
in a similar application to the 65G self supporting kits?
