[TowerTalk] Thoughts on Tower lifting cable broken strands

[Larry Loen]

It's cheaper, especially as there is a finite chance that "cheaper" here
also means "no loss of life, especially your own".  There's no law that
says you aren't on or under the tower when the cable snaps.

If you can't do it yourself, and don't want to pay, maybe you just cut your
losses and junk it. I'm not even sure I would sell it -- the liability
questions if someone promises to fix it and doesn't, would not excite me.

I'm as cheap as any ham, but there's a time when cheapness doesn't pay.
