I recall from many years ago that AM broadcast towers had the joints bonded
somehow to eliminate that problem.  I never observed exactly what the
bonding entailed but probably similiar to what was described with the strap
and clamps/  The 2 stations I was involved with did not have anything other
than the tower sections bolted together.  They were different than the
smaller Rohn sizes and more like the AB-105 tower with out the indivdual
joints.
