Felix,
I just looked in Tashijian ( Used to be called Tri-Ex ) Tower Catalog
and they show a WT-51 tower and it is rated for 13 Sq Ft antenna
for 85 mPh wind gust for 3 seconds
So you need to look at SteppIR web site and see what the wind loading is for
the 4 El SteppIR antenna with the 30/40 mtr add on element.
I am sure one of the tower experts on reflector will pipe up and confirm etc
I will CC the Tower Reflector to see what the experts say there.
