Retired recently and am getting back into ham radion.

I am planning on putting up a 80 to 10 meter OCF antenna. The antenna will be supported on a TV tower with the ends attached to some pine trees. I am planning on using a pulley and some weight on the ends to allow for wind effects on the pine trees.

My question is how much weight will I need at the ends to allow for wind movement of the trees?

Thanks,
