AMEN! I'm 6'3" with size 14's and let's just say I have a typical ham radio
physique!
I went with 45G for my 70 footer for a few good reasons, this being number one.
If
my huge carcass is going to be working at that level for that long, I want
something
REALLY strong under me. I knew my feet didn't fit in 25G so my ability to work
up there
for long hours was zilch. Thank God I made that choice! I've spent a LOT of
time at
the top.
