    Just get an aluminum plate big enough to bolt to the legs and bolt the 
tower to it. W7NI has the Rohn leg U-bolts. Unless it's a real small antenna, 
DO NOT clamp the antenna directly to one leg.

    The W7NI one is pretty good. His company is Antronics but I don't have 
his url off-hand. He's in cahoots with K7PN at Custom Metalworks who has a 
website too. 

    You can fabricate one yourself if you're slightly ambitious - it's just 
some angle iron, pipes, and fasteners.
