I have chosen to attach to the coax arms, although I run the coax through 
1/2" automotive heater hose about 18" per arm per coax. This keeps the
sharp bend from happening. I did not want the mess of cable laying on the 
ground when I mowed, or freezing down in weather like this (15 below
tonight). I do use an electric winch with remote switch to run it. I am
located safely in the house less than 10 ft from the tower with a mirror
and camera so I can keep my eye on things. Personally I feel safer when I 
am NOT under the tower when raising or lowering. At the base of the tower 
I would be too close to see the big picture, 
and if anything falls I would be too close to dodge. ______________________________________________________________I have evolved to using a pair of carabineer's at each coax arm. One hookedto the arm and the other to the one hooked to the arm. I am able to run 4LMR400, a rotor cable and a SteppIR control cable through each one. I usedto capture the cables at each arm which allowed for four nice loops abovethe ground but gave up on that as it never seemed to be the right length. Itjust takes some care coming down to keep the cables sorted to not tanglethem.Regards,Jon-K6ELk6el@comcast.net______________________________________________________________________________________________TowerTalk mailing listTowerTalk@contesting.comhttp://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk===========End of original message text===========
