I got some more golf bag stuff off ebay. Now I'm pretty well down to just needing more aerial sections.
Those rings are called British stays but how are they used?
The rings are part of the stay assembly, basically the bit at the end that you anchor with the pins.

The complete stay is a square plate with central hole that goes over the thread on the aerial rod (and is held in place by the next rod or the F rod adapter. Attached to the four corners are 3-link chain insulators with about 40 feet of cord which passes through one of the rings and has a "stay tightener" on the end for adjusting the length.
