the engineering called for 8" sch 80... and some super strong rebar in the base. i subbed out the mount so dont have all the details easily accessible... but if i recall, the hole is like 6' deep and 5 feet square. it seemed inadequate to me, but it was engineered, so i guess good to go.

Thanks for the pitch info, very helpful.  Are you using a heavy wall     thickness on the pole?   I thought with DP &W we could only go 6     ft out of the ground without increasing the pole size or adding     bracing.

ray,
 
this has           been a learn by trial and error learning experience. i know           12/12 is ok and 5/12 is not... so somewhere in between those           two pitch angles there is change.
 
the latest           pole mount i did was a dpw rack with 3 kW on an 8" pole. i am           attaching a 100 kb pix of this monster!
