DXE-GUY1000-KIT Four Point, Multiple Level Guy Kit
Some vertical antenna manufactures indicate their antennas do not need guying. During times of high
winds or ice loading however, some of these verticals may sustain damage or fail altogether. With the
small amount of effort needed to install a four point guying system, the risk hardly seems worth taking. A
four-point guying scheme provides the best mechanical advantage to prevent wind stress, regardless of
direction. The guying is intended for stability, and should never be depended on for primary support. The
guying kit can also be used for other ground mounted tubing kits, masts or antennas. The guying kits are
ideal for fixed or portable installations. Synthetic Textile Industries Double-braided Dacron/Polyester ropes
are not weakened by decay or mildew and provide excellent resistance to abrasion. The color sealed black
polyester yarn used in the braided jacket also protects the cord from damage due to ultra-violet light.
