How do you know wich model (if you can say model) of philistran to use?

For example a triangular tower 1 feet each side, 100 fts high, wich kind of
philistran to use?

Who sells it a razonable price?

Just to calculate costs with iron guys and insultators as Clint says.

Bill,
You need to re-calculate your costs  regarding Phillistran.  Once you buy
the insulators, clamps and the rest, the difference is small when you factor
in your time to make the guys sections, the hassle of dragging a guy up a
tower that weighs 5 times what it would made of Phillistran and the
band-aids you will need to stop the bleeding from the galvanizing that
peeled off the cable and stuck under your fingernails.  Use Phillistran once
and you will never consider EHS again.

Been there, done that, will never do it again.

  Many Thanks to all who responded! Everyone was quite helpful.

   

  The antenna is a Stepper 4E, sorry I forgot to say that. For the folks who
  asked about Phillistan; I priced it and found that a much more expensive
way
  to go.  Looks like 13 feet or between guys is right answer for my
situation.

   

  Thanks again,

  Bill, K5ZQ
