The 1988 manual consists of 8 pages. View B on page 4 shows the boom
clamping. There is a 10 inch fiberglass insulator insert 1" diameter
(item95) , a formed alumninum bracket (item 156) used between the boom and
the driven element, and a stainless steel ubolt (item405) to clamp them
together in the two holes.
These are probably available from Cushcraft?
BTW I replaced this antenna with the Steppir Monstr so it is for sale.
