Hi Dave,

Agreed, an open eyebolt would not be applicable to tower use. The eyebolts from Portland are all available with a welded eye which I would trust with no qualms.

Cheers & 73,

It goes without saying, but I'll repeat it anyway: For antenna or tower use, avoid the eye bolts that are just bent in a circle, only use the ones that are forged as a solid ring. Same for seat-belt attachment in our race cars. Dave
