Not to knock MFJ too badly, but would you trust your tower guyed
with insulators from MFJ? Caveat Emptor!


If installed properly nothing happens if one breaks except the two
sections of guy line are now attached to each other. course it's a
pain to have to put in temporary guys while replacing the broken
insulator.

IOW, I don't trust any insulator.
