You need to consider how you plan on using this tower.  If you are going to 
side mount rotatable antennas, you need to place the guys so they wont 
interfere.  If you are only using the top of your tower, I would place the 
guys at 30', 60' and 90'.

Well my plans to go 100' are scrapped to the county restrictions. But I can
go 90' with rohn 45.
Per Rohn 45g spec the guy levels for 100' are 31', 61 and 94' at 110mpg.
The spec for 90' only requires two guy levels (59' and 84'), but I now have
all the parts to support 3 guy levels.  Just to confirm 3 would still be
better than 2 levels, correct ?  Also were would I put the levels at ?   Any
official or engineering specs on this ?
