I used Constant-Torque Stainless Hose Clamps on antennas with excellent results.  They automatically compensate using a series of belleville washers on the worm drive.  

www.mcmaster-carr.com 

Item #54205K13    11/16-1-1/4"  SAE 12   2.62Ea (In pkg of 10)  
Item #54205K15    13/16-1-1/2"  SAE 16   2.69 "       "

They have other sizes and styles utilizing this feature.


No I don't own Mcmaster-Carr.  HA HA
