For my antenna, loady droopy dipole with 450ohm window line, I have run a 
carrier rope from the top of the mast to the eve of my house.  The carrier 
line is loosely woven through the window line, which has a couple of twists 
in it to stop wind flap and rain run down.  Works great.  The carrier also 
acts as a top guy.
