I have a repeater on a 100 ft tower with guys. Found the ends near the ground
were wrapped through the anchor holes and had about 2 feet of free ends after
the clamping bolts. When the wind would blow the free ends against the guy
wires all kind of noise would be generated. Cut the wires so they could not
rub against each other and the noise quit.
