I want to replace the up-haul ropes that support my 80M array. To do
that, I need to find a way to thread the new rope through small pulleys
at the 95-foot level on my tower. If possible, I'd like to do it
without climbing all the way up there. I could simply tie the new rope
to the old one, but I'm concerned that any knot might be too big to make
it through the pulley.
I've been thinking about mixing up a little two part epoxy and literally
gluing the new rope to the old, end-to-end. Has anyone out there done
that, and if so, how did it work? If you have a better way, please let
me know.
