I can get my hands on some aircraft cabling for a very resonable price. Can
it be used for guying towers?
My towers are 1) Rohn 25 @ 120'
2) Alumina (VERY BIG) @ 120'
I plan on putting stacked monobanders (10,15,20) on one, and a 40 mtr beam on
the other. The cable is 7/32" diameter and has a breaking strength of 5,600
lbs.
Will this work?
Thanks in advance, and please e-mail direct.
Herb

Peter, a friend of mine says he is quite sure that the 731 did not
support direct entry from the mic, I also own one and believe this to
to be true.The 732 and 742 do.
Later Sean.
