Finally got the base poured for the self-supporting 25G: 4.5 cu.ft. of
gravel, 2.5 yards of 4,000 psi concrete, and 170 feet of rebar. Thanks
to all who sent the rebar tips--first time I've used the stuff.
Too bad I have to wait for the concrete to cure before I put the rest of
the tower up. Otherwise I could join the Florida QSO Party--if the FCG
ever lets us know when they are going to hold it. :-)
