[TowerTalk] Feeding Guys was Loading Guy Wires

Been reading this with interest.  When I had my fairly-big station with 
a 100-foot tower, I found that having steel guys for the top set at 97 
feet messed up my 40M yagi, 13 feet further up.  Replacing them with 
Phillystran turned that into a much better antenna.  I suspect that 
making sections of guy resonant on one of the bands could have some 
unexpected effects on other antennas on the tower. Or, it might work fine.
