Does anyone use the strong-link / weak link system that is common in shipboard wire antenna installations? This prevents the antenna wire breaking in the event of severe storms.
Most of us with wires in trees use a weight and pulley system. Those who don't will find them on the ground in the first good storm. Ask me how I know! A few years after I moved here, I put up several wires and was one weight short of having enough for all the antennas. I was going to do that weight real soon, but real soon wasn't soon enough.
