I am in the process of erecting a few towers at the new QTH and have a guy
wire size question. Two of the towers will be Rohn 45 @ 100' and the third
will be Rohn 25 @ 100'. They will all have multiple yagis at various
heights on them, so not just a top mounted antenna. The Rohn book indicates
that each tower should be guyed at three elevations and the bottom two guys
should be 3/16" EHS.
QUESTION: I have LOTS of 1/4" EHS and guy grips. Is the 3/16" mandatory to
meet the specs (as in the 1/4" is too heavy) or - is the 3/16" simply
suggested (as in the 1/4" is not necessary but acceptable)?
thanks,
Bruce - N1LN
