Allen,

For my HDX589s I use the KF7P arm with the radius at the top and tape the bundle to it.

I do have a new Kellems 02202017 weave on 1.0 > 1.24" SS grip you can have for $20 plus postage. I think it will fit in a priority mail envelope.

I am looking for suggestions for supporting my cables from the top of my
crank-up tower. I am considering Kellems Grips, but also want to consider
something less expensive. Suggestions? I have an arm that extends out about
18" with a clamp on it.

Tower is 70 feet tall. Cables consist of  2 LMR400, 1 Rotor control cable, 1
SteppIR control cable, 1 #6 ground wire, 1 3-conductor extension cord. Not
sure of the total weight, but I'm sure it's a few pounds! Cable bundle is
about 1.1" in diameter.

73,
