I didn't see this mentioned: Have you investigated the possible use of
a
concrete "deadman anchor"?


What's that? A block of concrete...?

Yes. It's the favored material because it won't rust or corrode, like its
metal counterpart. Metal used sometimes, but only for temporary guys, like
a Field Day antenna tower.

Cut a hole in the ground and prop a metal rod in the hole. Fill around with
concrete, like a fence post. I did a 10' satellite dish mount in 1985.
Sucker never moved a millimeter, even with that big dish hanging off to one
side
