How far apart are those elements on the multi-feed C31XR, just a couple of feet? If you don't do everything just right, you will blow the Rx every time. I would suggest dedicated sets of stubs on the

When the wind is blowing at 80 mph, just think about what is at stake out there, both financially and in the labor involved in replacement. I don't think you want to be relying on seat-of-the-pants g

I'll bet someone used permanent Loctite on those bolts. I think you should buy a new upper housing. It's not a bad idea to buy that housing anyway, because those four bolts are self-tapping and manag

I think Rohn uses a "Brake Winch." At least that is what came with my 30 year old 25 foldover. With a brake winch, you can take your hand off the handle at any time in the raising or lowering process

It's almost impossible to predict such interactions. The most sensitive indicator that interaction is occurring is degradation of the f/b ratio on one or more bands. Measure the f/b of the CL36 befor

It's easy to try. Just disconnect the wires going to terminals 4 and 8 from the controller, and hot-wire your spare cap to those wires. Hook the cap to the wires, not the terminals. No need to open t
