Yep, just sharing experiences. I don't think you'd have a problem with 50-60 feet of 65G with a 2' dish and maybe a couple sectors. 65G is fairly stout. Or what about a light-duty monopole for your application?

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?
