[TowerTalk] staples for radials

[K8RI on Tower talk]

> Yes, Home Depot has them in the garden department.  Don't know the price.

I believe they are "ground cloth" staples.  Not at all expensive.  At least 
I hope not as we used them by the hundreds for landscaping around the yard. 
The ones we use are about an inch across a relatively flat top, about 6 or 8 
inches long and fairly rigid and can be driven in with a "dead blow" hammer.
