I'm guyed at 60% and the tower is fully loaded - we got big winds this fall.
Nothing came down!

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Rohn 25 guying question
Hi Gregg, at one time there were guy plans for Rohn Towers used for
Broadcast antennas. Those guy plans showed 60% guying radius.
Not sure if these drawings are still published but you might try a google
search.

I am planning to put up 130 ft. of Rohn 25 to be used as a 160 meter
vertical. There will be no antennas on this tower. The Rohn spec for guy
anchor points is 80% or 104 ft.
I am looking for some guidance. Getting 3 guy points each at 104 ft. from
the tower is going to be challenging due to terrain and property lines. Are
there any guidelines for anchor placement for a tower that does not have to
be subjected to additional loading from an antenna?
Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
