Guying a Vertical Antenna System
Guying of any vertical antenna is always recommended for stability. If your area encounters severe
wind velocities or icing conditions, simple guying will reduce the possibility of failure. Using the
DXE-GUY kits, you can install one, two or three level guy ropes. The drawing below shows an
example of dual level guying. Guy ropes should be tightened just enough to permit the antenna to
swing a few inches. The ends of the ropes are tied to the earth anchors that are screwed into the
ground at about the same angle as the ropes will be. The ropes are tied just above a band clamp at
the height desired. When using the
OMNI- TILT
™
base, position the guy ropes as shown below in
the overhead view. This will make it easy to raise or lower the antenna and only one guy rope needs
to be loosened. The other guy ropes will help guide the antenna on the way up.
