Most of those discussions were under the heading of
Tower Failure(s) or Guyed Tower Reference.
I copied most of the posts from early and mid 2001
in a private response, including the recommendation
to use multiple anchors in each direction to increase
the chance of falling within a limited radius along with
the caution that single guy anchors can lead to
failure modes with the towers falling their full height.
