[TowerTalk] bonding to Rohn tower

[Joe - WDØM]

I use a section of stainless steel (good quality).  Wrap it around the 
leg, then use a stainless steel hose clamp to hold your copper wire in 
place against the stainless steel "plate".  Works well - no signs of 
corrosion in the 6 years it's been in place.
