The normal do-what-the-manufacturer-says installation pictures always seem to assume that the direction of the guys are perpendicular to the tower face opposite leg to which the guy is attached. I am

If ALL the guys were pulling 15-degrees in the SAME direction from the 'norm', YES, they would put additional torque on the tower, BUT, if only one of them was, the amount of added torque would be mi

Depends on what your talking about. How tall is the tower? Is it heavily loaded? Long boom antennas? What's on it? 73 Jim W7RY _______________________________________________ ________________________

I would look at using an elevated guy anchor and attaching it higher on the tower or skip the wallmount and rotate the entire tower 15 degrees. John KK9A The normal do-what-the-manufacturer-says inst

It should be fairly trivial to make or modify a wall mount to accommodate a rotated tower. I don't like to see guys pulling in the wrong direction, though on a lightly loaded short tower you could ge

It has been written... Nor do I. But why would anyone want to? If guys are pulling the 'wrong direction' they could actually be serving not as guys, whose purpose is to stabilize the tower, but tendi

I use the tower manufacturers "guy brackets" which form a saddle around the tower. This eliminates the guys being attached to the tower legs so there is no outward force on the legs. All of the horiz
