Well, how about feeding 220 (and I'm not talking the MHz variety) 
through a piece of Heliax to feed something on the tower like a light? 
(or even as an  unterminated open circuit)

That way, when the cut through it with the rest, SURPRISE! The guy who 
was stealing the cable will be the body attached to the cut pieces.

I know.... excessive force.
But, if it's feeding the light, is it excessive?
Wrap it with tape that says "warning - dangerous voltage".
