They are available on eBay every day. I have never seen them for your
prices, but I would not consider them to be expensive. They are perfect
for the job if you run Heliax up your tower and you'll probably have
leftover butyl and tape for your connectors.

I would agree, normally, but I have sold many ground kits here for $3-$5
each (new). And have seen many for sale on ePay an other places for low
and close to these prices. I am not trying to sell any here and now.
Please do not ask if I have any "???" for sale ... I will not reply too
those.

Bottom line ... the grounding of the Heliax should be done per Mfg's
recommendation ... they have more experience than we do ( I hope) and I do
believe there are certain NEC codes that are applicable to this.

Look around you will find complete new ground kits ( with sealants, etc)
