    I'm not familiar with anything acceptable. It's something that needs to 
be rated at 4000 breaking strength; nothing I've ever seen had that kind of a 
rating. 

    Keep unscrewing your turnbuckles - they're the ONLY thing approved for 
holding guywires. You guys that take your guy wires off give me the willies 
anyway.
