[TowerTalk] Roihn Guy Bracket GA25GD?

[Richard Thorne]

Steve:

Either will work, I've done it both ways.  I like the GA25GD attach method though.  Much
easier to attach the guys', and would be easier to remove if  the guy locations on the
tower needed to be changed. Not sure if it helps tower torqueing (rotation).

If you can afford them, I'd get them.
