In the 60's I had 40 ft of 25G on a brake over base (5 -6 bags concrete
under it) and bracketed at 10 -12 ft to the house. Hang on to your hat, it
was topped off with a 4 element CB Hornet (24 ft boom). It stayed up until I
got tired of the nonsense, maybe 4 - 5 years. I'm in the middle of tornado
alley (NE Okla) and I'm sure it saw some good hard 80 - 90 mph wind. RM~
