I am leaning towards the Loop Skywire.  An 80m to 10m is extremely small,
about 72' per side.  42' pushups are only twice the height of the house, I
guess I'll get a couple 21' poles and see how difficult it'll be to get them
up.  The 21 footers I can toss around like broomsticks, we'll see what
problems a 42 footer creates.  If it looks good, buy stock in dacron rope
manufacturers!

Thanks for everyones input.

Whoops, another question.  What about lightning protection?  Should I put a
lightning rod on top of each mast should this work?
