[TowerTalk] Want info on tower standoffs for cables

I think that I saw a short article in QST in the past two years about how to 
make coax standoffs for a tower using Schedule 40 "Ts". I think that a "T" 
was fastened at the top of each section of the tower. Then the coax & 
rotator cable was put thru the standoff. When the tower is raised or 
lowered, the coax slides thru the standoff.
    Any idea which issue of QST & page it is in? Up until now I have been 
taping the coax to the tower legs about every five feet when it is raised. 
Then I have to cut the tape off when I lower it.
