Relax - Do what the manufacturer says.

The tower has a set of tracks bolted to one face for the entire length,
adding a lot of strength.  The 70 ft tower is guyed at 2 levels.  When you
undo 2 guys at one level, the tower is still guyed at the other level.

The guy-thing works sweetly.  I never even saw it sway a bit when raising
and lowering the C31XR when the guys were attached an unattached per Glen
Martin's instructions.

Glen Martin's been in business for awhile - Their towers are a reasonable
choice for anyone that doesn't climb and can pay the increased cost of this
tower.
