[TowerTalk] Rohn Torque Bars

[Tim Duffy K3LR]

Hi Jack!

Unless you are "Star" guying (6 wires at each level), there is no torque reduction (less twisting of the tower). The "torque bar" name is a poor one as it does nothing for reducing torque
and six wires requires a different guy attachment bracket.

I have lots of "torque bars" that are in my "barn of spare parts". I've never used the bars with my Rohn guy attachment hardware. If you decide to use them and need more, I've got lots of
them for sale!

73!
