Thanks Michael!
I'm not sure if you have unlevel ground, how you would make the top of all
three holes level. But no problem as I have two respected references and I
am not going to bother with getting the bottom of the anchor holes the same
level.
Thanks to all,
Tom - W4BQF

No. Make sure the TOP is level and all will be fine.
