Gentlemen -  In my younger days, when dollars were spend on three growing kids and hamming was a low priority budget item... I planted a 92' Rohn 25 tower, guyed 90 degrees around  at three levels.  My 50x400 foot lot would not support the recommended guying pattern (one set every 120 degrees) and keep the beam that I wanted to put up over my own lot/house.
   Taking the cheap route, I did not insulate the guys.  
   Dows anyone have a trick to pulling a rabbit out otf the hat & a way to get me a good low angle on 160, even 80????? Short of re-guying the whole thing (lottsa bucks) and insulating it now,  I'm outta ideas...
