[TowerTalk] Planning tool query

[Andre]

I am going through just the same now and I use AutoCad. It worked well with my other tower.

I'm contemplating my first guyed tower with side-mounted antennas.

 

What sorts of planning tools do people use to determine if the antennas of
various turning radii will clear guy wires? 

 

In my planning efforts I'll be contemplating several "what if" sorts of
questions. I think I can do this with (a lot of) graph paper and a spread
sheet and some basic trig, but I'm hoping for something that might be more
visual.

 

I don't want to spend $4K on an AutoCad license.

 

Dick, K6KR
