Re: How to attach a wire antenna to a fiberglass pole?
I've used a 1 or 2 #64 rubber bands, also provides some strain relief and easy to replace as they wear out

Re: EFHW/RW - Attaching wire to balun
I made a winder with unun mounted and wire attached directly to it via strain relief.
hope u can see it in picture.
top pic is 3 band trapped efhw
previous ununs just used alligator clip to grab wire
only time wire has broken was caused by dog running thru lower end
