I apologize for starting this thread while I'm at work - I'll get back
with you guys this evening and tomorrow!

I have a 70-ft aluminum Glen Martin tower with a C31XR on top.  It's
been up since 1999 without incident until 2 guys broke due to my
taping the ends (!).  Although the 1200 is light-weight, it's as good
as the original equipment and the whole thing could outlast me.  Any
ideas on attaching the heavier material to the tower?  The thimble
won't fit the original brackets.
