Look up how to tie a Bowline. Versatile knot that will not jam.

At the moment, it's been suggested I use a tautline hitch. I've used this knot before to hold up dipoles, not sure about its reliability as a guy rope knot. However, I like that it allows the rope to move either way so I can adjust it. Are there some other knots to consider? How about some kind of mechanical device?
