Hi, Larry, I won't reproduce your very excellent article on Kellem grips
here, even though the information probably warrants it, but I do have a few
questions.

Are Kellem grips designed for just one cable at a time?  In other words, if
I have a bundle of, say, three pieces of RG-213 and one rotor cable, is
there a Kellem grip that can handle the entire bundle or do I need to use
four, separate grips?

I am putting up a four-section motorized crankup tower.  Should I use the
Kellem grips at each coax standoff or will the weight of the coax above the
grip tend to loosen it?

This question is for Steve, K7LXC.  Might it not be a good business
decision for someone in your position to perhaps stock the particular
Kellem grip best suited for, say, RG-213 and similar cables, so that we all
don't have to play the numbers game with the Hubbell/Kellem catalogs?
::hint::    :)

Thanks, again, Larry, for your informative article.  It is definitely a keeper.

73, Dick
