Default Isolation of guy wires

Has anyone thought of trying to use some of the ferrite beads to isolate the
guy wires of a tower for RF so the tower could be shunt fed ? Along the same
lines could the beads be used to electrically brake up the wires into non
resonate lengths ?


The most effective ferrites are primarily resistive
thus dissipating some power. Maybe a more reactive
ferrite might work better?
