I am in the process of doing an antenna project.  The tower consists of  10 
sticks of Rohn 55G.

The anchors are about 60 feet from the base.  Two sets of guys at the 90 foot 
level and 45 foot level.  

I wonder if anyone can tell me how far apart should I place a johnny ball 
insulator.  There will be a tri-band beam on top.

Someone told me that I need not break up the guys at the second or 45 foot 
level, just the top guys.

Thank you.
