Weld some ears on it. Make a collar that clamps around the tube with
attachment points. Still need to bolt or weld to the pipe. I would put it at
the end of a section of pipe and reach inside and attach some nuts. I would
worry about just having a clamp, as it could slide under heavy tension. But
they make some huge exhaust clamps that might work. The good news is that
several people have these up and workng, so maybe a google search is
needed. click here or here one more here, but would not use a open loop
hook, weld it shut or get a welded or forge one.
good read here too, with some guy details here

I am putting up a couple of full size 80M verticals made out of 3 inch
irrigation pipe. Does any one have some suggestion for attaching the guy wires
to the irrigation pipe? Idear will be appreciated.
Thanks,
