You Guys are going to make me put my long wire backup, it blew down during
the last Typhoon

And I have just been too lazy/busy to put it back up!



We've been getting gale force winds, here in Chicago, the last
couple of seasons. Not exactly a typhoon, but tapping on 80kts on a
good day.

I suspended my random wires from multiple points, so the maximum
length of unsupported wire was less than 3m.

Haven't had to put one back up since.
