Thanks for the comments Bill. They have helped me make an important 
decision.

I will be removing all that free technical drivel I created from that 
web host. The problems associated with it have driven me nuts for quite 
some time now.

I am not the least bit ashamed by anything I have done, I've spent 
hundreds of hours researching topics and writing pages to be published, 
to make them available to you and others. That happens to only be my 
opinion, but because you chose an opinion topic, instead of a technical 
one, I have license to say that.

I will fix the current problem, and we will not have to burden the 
TowerTalk reflector with such non-productive traffic in the future.

Back to net!

   the method described doesn't apply to loads below the top guys in a
   guyed tower system.

Thanks Jim, for the private e-mail about your frustration with all the crap that the host throws at you, and your appreciation for the content.
You are correct about that stuff in the ARRL Handbook. It does not apply to loads below the top of a guyed tower. 
Please, no more references to my website.


Everyone have a great holiday season.

73, Kurt, K7NV
