"Why not just have you sign a release and fax back before telling you anything if they are that worried." 

Apparently their lawyers are not HAM FRIENDLY.....hope the coax people don't start thinking that their products will be blamed for conducting electricity and blowing up ham gear and burning houses down.. or ham radio manufacturers getting blamed for divorces...OOPS.. sounds like a new segment for Dr. Phil or Oprah!!! 

Sorry!

I have a CZ-455HD-FS one of the old tristoe towers.. US bought them 
out and their TX-455 is the same except mine was a Heavy Duty 
version. wanted to replace the cable about 15 yrs ago.. this of 
course was before all the lib crap. they sold me the cable ready to 
go.. i drew out the cable routing before i took out the old cable. I 
also tied a small rope to the old cable that i pulled thru as the old 
cable came out. then used that to pull the new cable in place. note 
of interest at one time they would tell you how to route the cable if 
you wanted to sections to go up one at a time or both to rise at the 
same time. sad to say NO MORE. It is a shame that what use to be a 
very good company has became what it is today. Why not just have you 
sign a release and fax back before telling you anything if they are 
that worried.
