That is the question.....

XM240 elements mostly assembled now-Anyone think of any drawbacks to adding
an aluminum rivet to each joint along with the hose clamp? Just thinking it
might make a better electrical contact and eliminate any possibility that
an element tip could slide out when laden with ice.

Really impressed with the quality of the parts and machining on this
antenna! Everything has fit the first time so far and is REAL beefy!

Thanks towertalkians!
