Hi,
Thanks Roger and Jeff for the information.
I will seach on internet...maybe i can find a video describing this method.
If i learn how to do it, i can use that method in the tower side and also to
connect the egg insulators, then i will use the clamps only to connect the
guy cable to the turnbuckles.
It sound very hard but i think it is very reliable.
I remember few months ago a Team of climbers here changing all guy wires of
an AM Broadcasting tower, they have been working with a bar stock in a
terminating EHS guy wire (about 1/2" EHS cable or bigger)...they install a
lot of huge insulator per guy wire to, as all of you know, use the tower as
a
vertical antenna on the AM Band...I will try contact that people and i will
ask about that method.

"Serving" is the word you're looking for. Rohn's serving tool was the

Serving seems to have fallen out of favor over the years, with preforms
generally being preferred by Rohn and most other manufacturers.
