Mike,

The Coax actually has a connector on it, the cut wires were all for
lighting.  I like the idea of a terminal block, much cleaner and neater
than a bunch of connectors taped together and dangling, only concern
would be corrosion on the wire ends requiring cutting from time to time,
and eventually requiring replacement of the wire in the mast.
