There is a tool that is free, even downloadable
The Rohn manual is a great tool
Anybtower owner should know and use it
Not just rely on what someone says you should do

By the way I have never seen elevated guy poles
Mentioned in the Rohn hand book

If your planning on elevated guy points you will really need a structural
engineer to give you the specs on height and materials as well as distance

Many here will tell you simply use I beams
There is a lot more to it than just useI beams

Cheers!
