since the Hazer wraps all the way around the tower,  I don't see how it will 
work for you.   It won't come down any lower than whatever  it hits first: 
roof, gutter, house bracket or whatever.

As for  Steve K8SP'S question about the guys:   Glenn Martin recommends 1 
set of guys  at the very top of a 50 foot or shorter tower, since it won't 
pass the guys.  If a beam antenna is installed  and is to be lowered, 2 of 
the guys need to be  removed  at the bottom   and the guys moved in towards 
the tower so everything will come down right.

While it sounds like a good idea in theory, I think I'll pass on this one.

Read the not so glowing reviews:
