John, N9JF used a 6 foot long piece of 6 X 6 X 1/2 inch galvanized angle
iron fastened across the tower about 4 feet down from the top. He uses 4
guys wires, two on each end of the angle iron. This is not quite as
effective as a star guying system, but an improvement over the usual Rohn
torque arms.

Does N9JF use a 6 guy cable torque stabilizer or just three torque arms
attached to the tower. The latter does little to prevent twisting.  A Green
Heron controller sounds like it would be a nice addition to the AlfaSpid.
