What Bill says is correct, and it is easy to implement on 6M. Put one
insulator as close to the mast as possible and another 4 - 5 feet down the
guy. Even though that is close to quarter wave, it isn't resonant unless
you leave out the insulator. That will put the unknown grounded remainder
of the guys almost a half wave away, which is barely acceptable, but better
than having them right up under the antenna.

Well, now you & Bill have me wondering if I should go up on the roof
and redo the guys ....... which is no easy task for me. I did however
use lengths that aren't resonant ........ aww heck, it's working now
so I guess I'll leave it alone until the next time I need to
add/change anything else.
