appropriate stability for the  structure.  You could tension million  
pound breaking strength  cable to the same few hundred pounds as the the  
regular non-EHS  cable.
 
    Are you saying that there is no particular  tension specification for a 
guy cable? Please clarify. Since you're an  experienced tower owner, I'd be 
shocked if your tower guys were tensioned at  some random tension.
