 John,

What's the web site you are sending us to? I see no tower but a lot of 
promotional stuff that has nothing to do with towers. A hidden button somewhere?

There is a lot of leverage on elevated anchors and I would avoid using them 
unless really necessary.    You could move the downhill anchor further away 
from the tower base to maintain the guy angle.   I have seen installations 
(including my own at http://www.qr.com/db/p40a ) where guy wires were are at 
very different angles and distances from the base.
