Bill,
     I'm curious how your wire verticals are (or were) supported.  Rohn-25
seems like a lot of cost and effort when you can have great success by
using cheap 3" irrigation pipe.  It holds up quite well.

I'm starting on the conversion of my 80M 4-square to Rohn-25 (I'm tired 
of fixing broken wire verticals and ropes everywhere).

Question:

  The connection between tower sections... What are ya'll doing there?  

  My idea is to use grease (as usual).  Are you also using some kind of
  strap at the junctions ?   Is it needed?
