I had one of these on the top guy set of my 110' R45 tower. And I had torque arms on the lower two guy sets. My question is aside from twisting, does this change any of the w; /archives//html/Towertalk/2019-06/msg00076.html (7,612 bytes)

A 6 way star guy does a great job of minimizing twisting. There is more leg compression since th; /archives//html/Towertalk/2019-06/msg00083.html (8,507 bytes)
