Winds here are gusty and from all directions. It’s an effect of being above common grade and being at the end of about 200 feet of open space. Deal with the mess it brings all the time with windblown yard stuff.
I have a good amount of experience weatherizing and siliconing things. Eye hooks I use all the time. Just not in this application. Fortunately, the eves and edges of roof are wood, so fairly simple to install aside from borrowing a very big ladder (i.e. 35-40 footer).
The 16 gauge wire gets pricey quick. Big uptick in wire costs in past few years. Need about 20 ft for each radial arm. Reading that folks recommend at minimum a dozen radials and actually more like two dozen. At 24 radials = 480ft = 500ft roll. Doable 🙂
24 radials seem good or overkill?
