My full size 3 element 40M 3 element Yagi is mounted on a Tic Ring,
just above the 100 foot guy level.  This Tic Ring uses two support
masts that support the boom guys of a large Yagi. I route the coax
cable up to the top of one of the support masts, then leave enough
slack (perhaps 10-12 feet) for it to circle my AB-105 tower.  

This coax rotation loop has been trouble free for over 10 years, although the Tic Ring hardware itself is beginning to show its age.
