Partially Guyed Tower With Anchor Basements On The Ground
Much more rarely and interesting under constructive details are partially guyed towers at which at least one basement of the guy anchors is on the ground. At such structures, the guyed mast on the top is in opposite to guyed towers with anchor basements on the top of free-standing tower much taller (in most cases taller than the basement tower) and it must be considered at its construction and maintenance, that the basement of the guyed mast is situated much more elevated than that of the anchor basements.
Not considered as partially guyed towers are guyed mast radiators, which stand on the top of a helix building, because a helix building is much smaller than the mast radiator on it. Such constructions the Mühlacker radio transmitter and the Ismaning radio transmitter.

The melancholy waters lie.
So blend the turrets and shadows there
That all seem pendulous in air,
While from a proud tower in the town
Death looks gigantically down.”

“A man’s real faith is never contained in his creed, nor is his creed an article of his faith. The last is never adopted.

And yet he clings anxiously to his creed, as to a straw, thinking that that does him good service because his sheet anchor does not drag.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
