I use a copper or aluminum plate with stainless steel 2-3 inch #8 or 10 hardware. I then use some of the larger
solder/crimp lugs. I try to insert as many radial wires in each lug as possible. Seems to work real well and is not
expensive or difficult to use.
I have a pair of verticals on 160, 80, and 4-squares on 40 and 20. That equals a lot of radials (I calculate about
4.33 miles and growing!)

You slide the wire in ans tighten the screw. Seems like it would be a whole lot quicker than other methods. Are there other methods like that you guys have used?
