My Rohn 55 tower @ 130MPH requires three top guys of 5/16" tensioned to 1100 
lbs each. If I use a TA-55 instead of three normal guys, what guying is 
required ? Ive found nothing about guying these. The assumption becomes to 
double up on the 5/16" guys.... It seems to me that adding three more of those 
heavy guys would negatively impact the capacity of the tower. So, before 
installation I'd like to get this answered and understand it.

Thanks
