[TowerTalk] mutual coupling "guys"

[Jerry K9GD]

>I would like to avoid mutual coupling between the guys on my tower for
>20/15/10 and my two  80 meter phased verticals about 3/8 wl away. I have
>read the ARRL antenna manual which gives guidelines for insulated
>lenghths to avoid. In my case the last section to ground is 60 ft. There
>is a turnbuckle 6 ft from ground and opening it changes the impedance of
>the closest vertical, ie coupling. The total lenghth of the guy is 71 ft
>broken by an insulator 11 ft from the top. Seems like I should  relocate
>the turnbuckel an install an insulattor at that point. Comments? tnx Art
