Re: [WISPA] direct bury pole?
Check with your local department of transportation. Think for a moment Idiot hits pole, pole goes down. Pole bent or broken. DOT has to get rid of it. Before it goes to recycler, go get it for scrap value. You may have to call a few DOT facilities to get what you want but a good size and still useable pole, after some modification, could be had for 100 to 200 bucks or even less depending on the local big shot. Been there. 80 foot pole with slight bend and elongated bolt holes 60 bucks! Another source.. Closed down gas stations along the interstate. Big twin poles for a sign, sign long gone. Expense is usually the time and equipment to take it down. I've had them given for free for the take down, lowers their insurance.

Re: [WISPA] direct bury pole?
You can direct bury a steel pole the same as a wooden. You just lose height the same as wooden.

Re: [WISPA] direct bury pole?
I like wooden power poles a lot, their exactly my bucket truck height and are under $1000 buried, they don't need to be guy wired and they mix in with surroundings. I go to Electrical companies to have them put in. If you have a relationship with the power company they can help too.
