Would you mind being a bit more detailed about this? What it is, exactly, and how you manage it? I think I know, but I want to be certain. Also, if there's a permanently-installed a safety line on a tower, what's required to properly use it?

4. All this further convinces me that a safety cable is the best way to climb a 
tower. I plan to install one on my Rohn 55 tower provided I can find one with 
enough clearance to pass through the three TIC rings on my tower.
