I've use a TRI-EX CT-100. Its a 100ft  tower with three sets of guys.  No spec 
on how much tension to apply to the guy cable.  Anyone have thoughts on the 
amount of tension for these guys?  The main crank up cable is 1/4" or 3/8"( I 
think) rated at 8200lbs the tower sections have two each cables that I think 
are 3/16".  The original manual doesn't provide tension requirements.

Thoughts welcome.

73,
Dave
