I have 3/8 cable on two of my taller towers. Wouldn't be without it.

How many folks on here run the 3/8" winch cable from top
to bottom of the tower, and use the positive locking device, hooked to
your climbing gear of choice? IE: if you slip, get stung by a wasp, get
dizzy from the heat, etc, what's stopping you from falling 100'....aside from the
next set of guy wires below you ? I see the Trylon version of this device uses a
shock absorber at the top of the tower. Some versions use a 3/8" cable..and some
versions use a square tubing rail, running the entire height of the tower.
