[BC] bonding AM tower sections

[Rob Atkinson]

Hi all,

a ham, putting up a 4 tower array for 3.5 mhz, is using sections of rohn 25 
and is wondering if anything special has to be done to bond the sections 
together for long term conductivity.  It seemed to me that this is an area 
where you guys might have some useful advice.  Are AM tower sections bonded 
in any special way (tack welding for example) or is the compression from 
weight and standard bolting of leg flanges enough?   I'd guess the latter 
but wanted to be sure.

thanks,
