Years ago, I recall seeing a picture (in the NCJ?) of a fallen 100 ft tower. It was guyed at three levels to an equalizer plate at a single anchor. The large equilizer plate BOLT failed, freeing all

How would a safety loop have helped, given that the big bolt broke? What would the safety loop connect to? The typical safety loop goes through the guy wire ends, the turnbuckle shackles, and the EQ

I have often wondered about this too. My safety loops go between the turn buckles, guywire ends, and through the little hole in the equilizer plate. There is no other place to thread a safety wire.

Sounds like a great idea, using a big grip on the guy anchor rod. Trouble is, big grips aren't designed to work on rod. Still, I think it might work. getting the proper size would be important as wel

by >removing the main bolt. What I have done to relieve my fears is to double nut the main bolt. I have also drilled a hole in the bolt and used a kotter-key with a slotted bolt. If you have ever ins

You can't really do much to totally discourage a determined vandel that is just out for the fun of seeing the tower crash. If, on the other hand, he is after your tower because he thinks it will cur

I have to agree with Tony. Besides that, the safety loops I have seen in the Rohn books show fairly small cable and their function is to keep the turnbuckles from unscrewing themselves. If that big

A vicious appearing/sounding dog, that will bark whenever something unusual occurs on your premises, is a worthy addition to your station. The neighbors already hate you anyway, right? Big Don (with
