Just put up a 80 meter dipole today, but had some difficulty with two
things: proper tying off of the lift/ support rope and proper tying off of the guys. When I say "support rope" here's what I mean: one side of the dipole was anchored high in a tree while the other from a 30' telephone pole. The tree had a pulley installed, so the "support rope" hangs down from there as well as the eye bolt from the telephone pole (support rope through the eye bolt). So, I'm not sure where or how to tie the support rope ends. Right now, on the tree side, I just have several turns around a low branch with a knot; basically the same with the telephone pole side. What is the proper way to secure the base of the supoort rope? How do I tie the guy wires? Thanks for any help. |
