Towertalkians, 

We are planning to erect a tower for our club's DSTAR repeater antenna. This 
tower will consist three ten foot Rohn 45G tower sections on the flat roof of a 
multistory building. The problem we have is that two of the three guy anchor 
points are under an adjacent structure roof overhang and will not allow us to 
guy the tower at or near the top. One of our club members has proposed a novel 
idea for deviating the guys around the roof overhang - please see the diagram 
below. Has anyone ever tried something like this before? Does this look like a 
good idea or not? 

Please note that this diagram is not to scale.
