[TowerTalk] Guy Wire Formula?

[Alain Michel]

Hello All!

I am in the process of erecting a 40'+ mast to support the feedpoint of my G5RV. I was initially planning 3 wires [Dacron rope] at each level. Should I use 4?

Using A2+B2=C2, how far out from the bottom of the mast should the guys be fastened to the ground? I plan on guying the mast at the 20', 30' and 39' levels.



All suggestions will be most gratefully received!

73,
