Well I'll take your word on it. So now....what to do. I in the process of
installing a 110-120ft 25g tower but I'm not sure what to do with the top
set of guys. Fiberglass is out. I been read the past few sets of threads
on diffent guy materials and it seems there are a few options. Which on is
the best though. I purchased enough guy wire for the entire instalations.
should I break up the top set with the porcelain insulator type or is their
some combination of Philis. and insulators that is better? Your thoughts on
this would be greatly appreciated.
