For towers that have 3 guys, do you give any consideration to the direction
of the predominant winds? For example, awould you try to orient the tower
so that the "2-guys" are into the wind?? I'm planning a 70 ft Glen Martin
- It will be assembled on the ground, then tilted/pulled into position. I
might have to orient the base such that I can get a rope from the tower
toward the nearest tree to aid getting it upright. If I end up NOT having
to do it this way, are there any theories affecting the orientation?
