I bought two of these 3" double pulleys to use as a block and tackle
system for raising antennas up my tower. They were pricey, but I didn't
find anything of comparable quality for less money after LOTS of searching.

They also have many other pulleys as you can see from the links to the
left of the page.
By the way, I have a self supporting tower (AN Wireless) with large
cross members, and these gorilla hooks work great with my full-body
harness. They are very light weight and easy to use.
