Several reference on lightning control recommend using some type of flexible 
grounding contacts to ensure continuity between the telescoping sections of a 
tubular tower.  I'm considering using stainless steel fingerstock, but would 
appreciate hearing of other's solutions.  

Also looking for any lessons learned on building a rotator cage (not using the 
MARB base).  I've seen several examples on web sites, but suspect they weren't 
"engineered" solutions.
