for geodetic measurements, they drill a hole down to bedrock, and run a 
pipe down to anchor the antenna to the bedrock.

"All holes shall be drilled straight enough so that PVC casing can be 
installed in the top 15.5 ft of each hole, and that the steel pipe can 
be freely lowered, not forced, for its entire 35 ft length."
