hi folks,

so I have my Winegard 1080 mounted on a tripod base, with a 1 1/4" OD 10' mast.

it's mounted on my roof. the antenna is at the very top of the mast, and of course, it sways with the slightest amount of wind.

I am hoping to get some help with ordering guy wire hardware. I am out on the Summit Source and was assuming there would be a kit with the wire, mast bracket, roof mounts, turnbuckles, etc.

If someone has a minute, could they give me a shopping list?

thanks so much

Jeff
 
Not quite sure what you want, but probably a 3 point guy system (120 degrees apart) with a collar at the top to keep the guys from slipping down and some sort of anchor at each roof mount should do.

You can probably do a single set at each point without any turnbuckles, since it is not going to be withstanding really great forces.

Try your neighborhood Radio Shack for parts, maybe even Lowe's or Home Depot.
 
thanks,

actually Radio Shack stores don't have guy wire and accessories. not like the old days.

actually, I think I found everything I need at Summit Source.

Appreciate the response.
