Paul-
Looks like a fairly spindly pole. I would be concerned that adding guys would
increase the compressive load in the pole, which might cause it to bend out of
column and fail. I would think that two sets would be better than one.Do you
have any specs for the pole which might list a max downward load? You need to
make sure the load added by the guys does not exceed that. Of course, the wind
loading added by the guys might be significant as well. The correct answer is
to get some engineering done.
