Now that I know you are referring to wire antenas it makes more sense.  As I

Paul how you derived guy wire and anchoring to a tree out of my statement is
beyond me. Been using this stuff for well over 30 years. Not saying it's the
best but haven't found anything better..FOR HOLDING UP WIRE ANTENNA'S. Go
ahead and spend your money, I'll refrain from making any further post on
this forum...........Tom N4RS
