Double guy wires

     I am contemplating running a double set of guy wires from the 
     rotating ring to each anchor for my rotating tower; similar to 
     what one would do when using a torque arm assy.
     Question: How does one terminate each guy wire at the anchors? I 
     assume a turnbuckle will be required for each individual wire. 
     Should each turnbuckle have its own spot on an equalizer plate or 
     should I double them up in some way to keep the angles 
     consistent?
     Thanks es 73,
