[TowerTalk] Connector advice

[Larry B.]

Hi Gene,

These look just like the trailer connectors I purchase from, my local auto 
parts store.

Dave:

     I use these https://thewireman.com/product/rotor-disconnect-8-pole-m-f/
in three places:  at the top of the tower underneath the rotator shelf; at
the bottom of the tower so I can control the rotator from there when doing
maintenance; and inside the shack.

And another good source of trailer and other outside connectors plus other
useful items is Del City, https://delcity.net/
<https://catalog.delcity.net/Del-City-Interactive-Catalog-2021/1/>

I've purchased a few things from them lately for use in this salt air
environment and find the pricing reasonable and the service first class.
Last purchase was some jacketed trailer cable. Interesting inventory.
