Do the following seem like reasonable prices per foot for EHS guy wire?
I will probably need around 3500 feet or so.
7/16 $0.71/ft
1/2 $0.95/ft

Why so large? If I recall
correctly, we used to use 3/16 EHS on towers up to 100 ft or so.
Unless you're putting up a 1000-ft tower, 7/16 or 1/2 seems like
overkill, not to mention it will be more difficult to work with.

The tower is only 180 ft, but it has a 46 face, so I have been advised that
3/8 is probably not enough and that I should plan to use 1/2 for the regular
guys and 7/16 for the double guys to the torque arm. Thoughts?

Considering each 20' section weighs 1400lbs I don't think it is too
much. ( I think this is according to his previous email )

Yes, 1400 lbs is the reported weight per section, though it's not here yet,
so I can't say for sure.
I do plan to weigh the sections when they do arrive by weighing my trailer
empty and then running down to
the corner truck stop to weight it with a section loaded...
I don't know what all I will
