The lock nuts would be relatively recent AFAIK, I never saw any prior to around 98 to 2000.

My tower is mostly built from eight NOS sections that had been laying on the ground at N6RZ for a lot of years, and that I bought from Kerry, his XYL. Hardware still stuffed in the legs were rated 1/4-in and 5/16-in fine thread bolts, nuts, and split lockwashers. When I acquired additional sections used, I bought more rated hardware of the same size and type.
