[TowerTalk] HF6V Coil Taps

For a couple of years, I've been using a relay on my Butternut
HF6V 80m coil to allow me both CW & SSB operation.  The idea was
written up in QST several years ago.

The weak links in the system are the alligator clips used at the
tap points.  Being just chrome plated steel, the don't handle the
weather well.  Any ideas for readily available materials to use for
straps or clamps to use on the aluminum coil?
