And when Bob, N6TV visited my station, the asked, "Why aren't
you using a spade lug for K3 ground?" I could only say, "Duh!".

Why try to connect the wire or braid directly to the ground lug?
Soldering a lug onto the end of a wire or braid makes it "oh so easy" to attach.

Yes, it is a hassle getting a stiff copper wire on that little
ground screw. I use 1" braid with a strip of copper sheet
folded and soldered over the end and a screw hole drilled
through-- basically, homemade flat terminal lugs on the ends
of the braid. Very easy to manage now.
