[TowerTalk] Guying an R-6000

Hi all,

So it¹s been recommended by many, many sources to guy such verticals as the
R-6000 and R-8, as well as the Hygain no-radial verticals (Patriot).

Does anyone know the appropriate minimum guying material? I¹d like to use
something as inconspicuous as monofilament, but the question is the
strength. The antenna will be going above the surrounding roof level and it
would be most prudent to spec to 100 mph winds.

Thanks for any help.
