I am putting up my Inv-L , one thing I fear is that if the wire breaks at the 
feed point I will lose the wire as if goes thru the pulley at the top of the 
tower. Is it ok to have a small loop about 3-4 ft above the feed point around 
an insulator , so I can secure it to the to the tower so that in the event of a 
break at the feed point I don't lose the antenna.

thanks
