A hose clamp would put very little pressure on the leg of an AN Wireless
tower. Think of the leg as a large piece of angle iron, except that the
angle is 60 degrees instead of 90.

Why not use a hose clamp with a piece of stainless shim for dissimilar
metals protection? I have a bunch of these and they have held up well
in the weather.

AN Wireless towers don't have round cross-section legs, but rather
use flat
steel bent at a 60 degree angle for the legs. Most tower grounding
solutions that I've seen use fittings that clamp onto a round tower
leg.
For those of you you have installed AN Wireless (or similar towers),
how
have you attached the grounding strap or wire to the tower legs at
the base?
