Joe,
I would like to have used exothermic welding on my tower grounding system.
A friend, who is a telecom engineer, explained the process, for which the
materials are available locally and in most cities.
In the end, I settled for silver soldering, which can be done with a $30
kit available from Burnzomatic. It uses Map Gas and Oxygen cylinders (the
size you can hold in your hand) and a small torch. Works very well.
