Is it temporary or permanent?
We use trucker's hitches on everything we put up on Field Day...I think it is
more secure than the tautline.

I'm putting up a 40' aluminum mast as an end point for an all band dipole

moment, it's been suggested I use a tautline hitch. I've used this knot before
to hold up dipoles, not sure about its reliability as a guy rope knot. However,
I like that it allows the rope to move either way so I can adjust it. Are there
some other knots to consider? How about some kind of mechanical device?
Thanks,
