What a waste of towertalk reflector messages.  No wonder I am getting so
many messages.

REPLY:

Mouser has ring terminals for 10-12 wire with #8 hole at $10.03 for 50,
Mouser part number 7113K48. 

To wire two wires would be 40 cents. 

They also have that size uninsulated at $11.21 per 100 if you don't mind
using heat shrink or electrical tape. Or nothing. 

Like the song says, you gotta shop around.
