Hello All -

I have a couple of questions about guying when stacking yagis.

1.  What is the minimum acceptable horizontal distance between the nearest 
upper guy and the closest approach of an element tip (the turning radius)?  
This assumes that the guys are broken into non-resonant lengths.  I'm trying 
to figure out how far away my anchors need to be.....

2.   How far out from the tower can one quit worrying about the guys being 
broken into non-resonant lengths.  Obviously further is better, but any 
practical experience would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
