[TowerTalk] Force 12 rebuild

[Roger (K8RI) on TT]

According to the link, you use Nylock nuts.  How do you get the nylon to 
last?
I've had very bad luck with Nylock nuts.  All I've used had lost most of 
the nylon within 2 years and were no longer functional. When new they 
were great.

I live in Southern Michigan (43'37"N) and a ground elevation of only 
630' MSL so UV isn't normally much of a problem, but lock nuts with 
short life are.
We will see very few days above freezing (if any) for at least the next 
two months unless we get an above normal winter like 3 years ago.
