Just be sure the wire can slip off the sheave and get jammed in the gap.

Another possibility: Solder little loops of wire onto the antenna a few 
feet on either side of the pulley and tie a piece of rope between them, 
leaving a little slack so the wire can hang below the pulley. The rope 
goes through the pulley, not the wire.
