[TowerTalk] First Tower

[David Robbins]

yes.  all of my towers have at least part of a tower section, some have a whole tower section, above the top guy wires... then of course there is a mast above that.

when tramming the top 40m yagi on my 180' tower the tram wire is about 8' above the top guys, I do run a back stay the opposite direction to keep the stress off the tower joint.

Is it common to work above the top guys, after installation?
I’m not sure I’d want to handle a heavy beam or do tramming above a joint.
I “think” it would be OK, but would like to hear from TWHDI (those who have done it).
