We already had the pole. They replaced a boatload of poles that had been in
3 years after being replaced in an ice storm. They upgraded to composite
poles along a new stretch of Hwy 30 they are building here.  The pole was
set for the cost of 2 guys and a truck for 2 hours.  Anecdotally, the pole
is planted in the farm yard of the foreman of that crew.  My deal is with
him.

Friendly Regards,
 
Mike

Is that for a set, or a pole and a set?

Pole and a set, that is a steal!
