All:

I'm going to be building a Rohn 25G to sixty feet and I'm assembling the
parts.  I'll need to guy the tower four ways (it's a Tilt Over) at two
levels.  I'm looking at getting turnbuckles for the job and went over to
eBay to have a peek for some of the parts.  There are some 5/8" turnbuckles
for about $12 with shipping.  I'm thinking of getting the 5/8" ones because
they're a bit of overkill and lots cheaper than bust out retail.  The link
to the turnbuckles:

ame=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=019

Now I know I'm being cheap about this.  But what is the down side?  This
tower was sold to me used and the other owner had used 3/8" turnbuckles.  So
the size is larger.  I must be missing something.

Thanks in advance for your input.

Bill, AB8SC
