I usually buy mine on Ebay. I purchased a bunch of #24 sizes recently. They work well for 1-2 inch poles. On Thu, Feb 5, 2009 at 11:09 AM, John Valenti vale...@lir.msu.edu wrote: Someone on StarOS forums suggested Enco. I haven't tried them yet, but their catalog is loaded with goodies.

Looking for a good source, good deal for a qty of hose clamps. I would like to find em at $0.50 each if I could. Probably 2 inch or so. I just need a good size for nano stations. Brian WISPA Wants You! Join

What - you're too good for zip ties? :) These are handy, haven't tried them on the nanos though: http://www.cabletiesandmore.com/american/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=21_126products_id=649 Brian Rohrbacher wrote: Looking for a good source, good deal for a qty of hose clamps. I would

The zip ties that come with them are ok in the summer, but in the winter, they break into pieces every time we try to use them. Brian Randy Cosby wrote: What - you're too good for zip ties? :) These are handy, haven't tried them on the nanos though:

Zip ties are cheaper. Putting them on is easy. Taking them off you cut them and use another. I don't want to hear any hippies complaining about the environment until it pays my bills! On 2/4/09, Brian Rohrbacher br...@reliableinter.net wrote: The zip ties that come with them are ok in the

I lost 3 900Mhz Moto SM's due to plastic zip ties breaking, module hanging upside down, and filling up with water. Take my word for it, use hose clamps or metal zip ties. Your back pocket will fill much heavier. Scottie -- Original Message -- From: Josh

I tend to agree. Even one failure (radio and service calls) pays for a lot of hose clamps. I tend to error on the side of caution when I can. Brian Scottie Arnett wrote: I lost 3 900Mhz Moto SM's due to plastic zip ties breaking, module hanging upside down, and filling up with water. Take

Are you referring to mounting the moto radio to a pole? I would go with hose clamps as a fall back - I prefer bolts (ARC, Trango, Tranzeo). Lines and things that just need to be held so they don't flap in the wind is where I suggest zip ties. On 2/4/09, Scottie Arnett sarn...@info-ed.com wrote:
