With all the talk about the expense of guying (phily and EHS), it might be a
good time to remind folks to check out Rohn 55 over 45. I have 110' of 55
with a 20' mast and it's guyed in two places--50 & 100. Has lots of antennas
on it (spread out from 52 to 125'), PE approved, and certainly has a lot less
footage of whatever guy line you chose. Once you have tried 55 you won't go
back to 45. Price might not be too different --110' Rohn 45 with 3
sets--Rohn 55 with two sets. The big expense is that 20' 1/2" wall 133,000
PSI mast!
