I've gotten a spool of stainless cable and the stainless wire rope clamps and 
thimbles. AUWC has the long ladder.
We're set.

Re: [BVARC] MSWE - need preformed guy dead end grips

[mark janzer via BVARC]

The sub has galvanized clamps now and they are in poor shape. Home Depot has 
3/16" stainless clamps.The dead end grips only come in galvanized, from what 
I've found.
Mike, we'll go with your recommendation.
