I wouldn't go above 30 feet without guy wires, the system is designed to be a loaded spring which is what gives it strength. if you are putting up a 4' dish, i'd want guy wires even at 30 feet, if you are putting an SM up you might be able to go to 40 feet...but climbing it would be sketchy :-/ -sean On Fri, Jul 1, 2016 at 4:48 PM, Jason McKemie < [email protected]> wrote: > How tall can you take a 45 or 55 without guy wires? > > > On Friday, July 1, 2016, Eric Kuhnke <[email protected]> wrote: > >> How about Rohn 45G, 55G or 65G pieces from www.3starinc.com ?
