Daryl:

We recently erected a 72' tower using 4 lengths of chain link fence top rail
[1 1/2" (?) diameter].  We (3 of us) tilted it up using one length of top
rail.  Four guy points with four cables attached at each pipe joint by the
clamps that come with chain link fencing.  We used welded rings at these
clamps to attach the cable.  The cables are guyed at a 40 foot radius.

I need a cheap MET tower and equipment.  
I would like to go up about 20 meters. ( Or 60 feet )
I would like at least two anemometers, possible one
wind vane.  

Can I use six lengths of 2" electrical EMT conduit,
with steel couplings?  and cut some steel plate for
collars?  Would this be safe with 20' gin pole and a
20' tower radius?

Would some one have a tower building guide?

Need this soon
Thanks
Darryl
