[TowerTalk] Guy alignment - friendly wager

[K7LXC@aol.com]

      Actually I use Method #3. I stand a tower section up at the base 
position and sight THRU the tower face to the third leg which is in the 
desired direction. This may not be as accurate as a transit but it seems to 
work adequately. Tape off the desired distance and you're all set. 

     This technique is really handy for siting a tower; that is, determining 
where the guys can/will go. You try it once and see that 2 of the legs are 
fine but the third one is too close to the garage, you just lift up the 
section, rotate it a little bit and sight thru it again. Repeat until 
satisfied. 

Cheers,   Steve   K7LXC
