Consider making up the short distance by raising the short wire at its 
termination point to offset the lack of overall distance. But be sure the 
method of raising this short wire is substantial enough for the job.  - Mike

Dave

Is this tower we discussed?

60 ft tower guyed at 25 and 50 for what you are planning. Also given your short 
guy point situation maybe consider 4 way guys instead of 3?  Can use short guy 
points with4. 

Regards,

Mark, K1RX
