Now I see what you were doing. The equip I have is similar to previous posts though. There is the usual clevis but there is a longer tube opposite the horn end that has two tiny holes for threading the cable through. Only the clevis comes in contact with the horn, not like yours where the cable does. Also with your way there is no "disconnecting" the cable from the horn without ruining the "tube-crush" component. Mine you just slide the keeper off and pop the arms open/slide it off the horn.
