[TowerTalk] Tower question for a change

[Lynn D. Osterbur]

If all the bs has cleared, I would like your thoughts on lightening damage to
towers with insulated guys and towers with grounded guys.
Seems to me, the towers with grounded guys would be less likely to receive
excessive damage from direct strikes.  Assuming both installations have 2 or 3 
ground rods at the tower base, what if any effect can the loss of grounded 
guys have on a tower installation?
  I am about to install a new set of guys with insulators. Any comparisons?
