Although rotor bolts can loosen over time generally if they're tightened 
properly initially they won't do so - at least that has been my experience. 
Tower bolts have no issues to speak of as the nuts have lots of friction and 
are not critical to the application (all load is vertical) ... Nylocks were 
the second best and at a much more affordable price - that is what M2, 
Optibeam use on their antennas - and what I choose to use.
