Gentlemen...

First of all a little clarification....

1. It is a 75 ft tower not a 90 ft tower (the mast is 21 ft)
2. It has a base of over 3000 lbs of concrete in the ground (.75 cubic
yards)
3. Does my "90 ft tower" weigh any more than anyone else's "90 ft tower?"
4. If it settles then the guys will be tightened to compensate.
5. I have no neighbors near enough to have issues with a fallen tower. I'm
in the country.
6. The tower is covered by our homeowner's insurance under the group of
"outbuildings and other structures"
7. Yes..I am "proud of it".

Those that have been courteous and helpful..thank you very much. The
others can just go fish....or any other appropriate phrase you may think
of.

Ya gotta understand Charlie that most of those complaining all live on
postage stamp lots, in cities, with neighbors. On the other hand, us
"Southerners" know better than to move into a antenna restricted
sub-division, with wall to wall covenants. They are to be felt sorry for.

I think your tower looks fine, when I get mine up this year I'll work you
on the 2 meter net.
