I'm thinking about putting up a Rohn 25 or 45 tower to at least 60 feet.  What does one use as temporary guys while building the tower?  Do you put temporary guys on each section as you go and keep m

When we put up my Rohn 25 (97 feet) we used stout rope guys on the first part (20 feet on a pier pin), added the third and 4th sections, put the first set of permanent guys on at 31 feet, and then pr

Normal practice is: Put 3 sections together on the ground, put guys on those sections, hoist to vertical and install the guys and snug them up. Climb this short tower with a gin pole, pull up and ins

That is nice and easy with rohn 45 or 55... but the first time you do it on 25 can be a bit shaky... that 2nd section above the guys when you are pulling up the gin pole then the next section and try

I am putting up 80 ft of Rohn 25. I am using the steel guys that are part of the extension to the AB577 system. The benefit is they are one-piece, adjustable in length and available to me since I'm t

Well, I assume we all do it differently. When I have generally put up my 70 (Rohn 25), 90 (Rohn 45 for all the rest), 100, and 120 foot towers, I have usually wanted to swing a monobander around the

Then you will need 6 good ropes long enough to go from one section below the top to your anchors. Before you raise each of the unguyed sections tie the 3 ropes on to it, raise it, tie them off, then

Steve is right: AB-577 guys are 1/8" galvanized or stainless steel. That's below spec for Rohn 25. Further, the AB-577 guys are tensioned with "snubbers" which clamp the guy wire. Not at all clear th

That's WHOA, fellas, I'm only talking about using the '577 guys as temporary guys - one should NEVER think of using anything substandard for a permanent installation. That would, indeed, be asking f

Hey Larry, I haven't read all the posts to your question so someone may have already given you this very important suggestion. When you dig the hole for the base of your tower, be sure you put some g
