Well, its not a standard rohn design, at least up to rohn 55g.  at 230' a
rohn 55g would have 5 levels of guying with a radius of 184'.  But it could
easily be a much stiffer and fatter tower than 55g.  or it could be a
special design for low wind zone with smaller antenna loading.

235' tower with anchors at 100', three guy levels. Ever heard of such a
thing? Is it possible? Oversized or undersized wires? I haven't seen it, but
it sounds bizarre to me.
