[TowerTalk] Joining two perpendicular wires

[Jim Brown]

YES!  This has been my solution since discovering them almost 15 years 
ago. At dipole feedpoints, the wire loops back on itself through an 
insulator, and is clamped to a wire going to the coax connector by two 
split bolts. I also use them to connect elevated radials. I use a DXE 
radial plate for my 160M tee with on-ground radials.
