Spring / Summer backyard tower project

Hi, since you have a nice hole in the ground, this may be a good time to think about a ground rod. They say not to embed a ground directly in the concrete, but you can put the #6 in a conduit and bring that up through the pad... Greq VE3RQY can give you all the details about grounding... keep the top of the pad slightly above ground so no grass clippings etc will lay on it, round the corners if you can
