John of course has done this the wrong way.

Most of us add radials to an existing vertical radiator.

Whenever John gets beat out in a pileup, he adds radials to a NEW vertical 
radiator.

He ended up with 9 of them (vertical radiators), and evidently hasn't had to 
"add" any more radials since then.
