Topband: Need Info Re Tower Detuning

[W9zr@aol.com]

Hi Fellow Topbanders

I am planning to install a 4 square and would like to hang the wires from a 
150 foot tower.  The tower will have nonconductive guy wires and 40 and 20 
meter beams at the top as well as sidemounted 20 and 40 meter beams.  The 4 
square wires will have a T top configuration.  The tower is not insulated.

How important is it to tune the tower to make it look invisible on 160?  Is 
it a difficult process to determine where to a add a tuning stub? < I assume 
a tuning stub is the way to go?>  What test equipment is required and what is 
the correct process to determine what to add?

I wish all topbanders a happy, prosperous, and DX filled new year!
