Not sure if I have ever seen stainless guys.  They have all been galvanized in 
my experience.

Most of those things are a good idea, even if not completely necessary (a lot 
of it, like shielded cable, is necessary, in my opinion).

Steel cable ties sound like a bad idea (assuming you're talking about the zip 
tie type... I imagine that would tend to cut through cables). 


If you've had problems with guy wires rusting, then I would probably look into 
stainless steel, but I think galvanized is generally fine... I'm certainly not 
an expert on that subject though.

  Hi Guys



  I’m continually improving my 15 year old Wisp and had some questions..



  Do you guys ground all your base radios?

  Do you use surge suppressors?

  Do you use shielded cable on the towers with metal ends?

  Do you put all your cable in conduit going up the tower?

  Do you use steel cable ties?

  Do you put some kind of grease or spray on the cat5 end before you set in 
place?

  Do you use stainless steel guy wires?



  My answer to all these is no ☹  but I figure if I’m rebuilding I should do it 
right the 5th time!



  Thanks very much for any idea’s



  Rhys
