[TowerTalk] Next Radial - Question

[Scott & Sherry Souva]

Great point Don! I use the Ross Radio Lawn Staple Anchor Pins on my homebrew 
30 meter vertical and they work great. My lawnmower glides right over the 
top of the insulated wire radials with ease. Why make it hard when solutions 
already exist!

Why not use galvanized pins?  Use insulated wire and the galvanic
action you're considering is moot.
