The problem is I need to buy 9 of these to offset-mount the sector
antennas, and that's adding up.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

<div>A decent suggestion! However, the review on the only
Radio Shack one I can find is not flattering:<br>

[HamWAN PSDR] Where does one buy these V-Bolt
clamps cheaply?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
I'm thinking about $2.50/ea would be nice.
Muffler clamps are NOT adequate. Muffler clamps
have 2 semi-circle contact surfaces, and if the
pipe is slightly smaller than the clamp, this
creates a 2-point contact which causes rocking
action. Gross. The nice toothed and V-angled
designs here are the bomb.<br>
