[TowerTalk] Tic ring feeline

[David Robbins K1TTT]

There are 2 ways I have used.  The most common is to run the line up the
tower to the height of the boom brace struts, then loop it down and back up
to the strut and then down the strut to the beam.  This of course assumes
you have a beam that needs the strut.  Though in one case I couldn't do the
following method because of guy wires so I had to put a single strut up just
for the rotor loop.

The other way is to go down below the ring and leave a loop hang down and
bring it up to the outside of the boom cradle.  This won't work if the ring
is too close above a guy wire as most of mine are.
