I have  often wondered if the opposite is true.  If space is not a 
problem,  would extending the guy anchors out give a better wind  rating?


Pulling out the guys beyond 80 percent creates another problem which has  
been addressed on this reflector before.  In effect, the guys actually  start to 
exert forces that start to 'pull apart' the tower from the sides.
