Jeff:

The TA40KR kit has done well for the past 10 years. I've got more than 140 countries on 40, and worked 3B9C last night on 40 phone.

I finally found my TA40KR manual, although it is from about 10 years ago. I'll be glad to photocopy it today and mail it to you (I don't know how to do attachments). Or if you have a fax machine its about 10 pages. As an FYI, the "parts list" shows the following with no explanations although with the exception of the traps I presume its referring to tubing. The descriptions are from the parts lists itself, no editing by me

5/8"x 59" "blue 2 pieces
1 1/4"x 48" "smashed end" 1 piece
1 1/2" x 18" strut support 1 piece
1 1/8"x 12 swaged , no color code 2 pieces
1 1/8"x12 swaged "blue" 2 pieces
blue traps 2 pieces
115 feet of dacron rope (an as an aside I replaced this with the smallest Phillystran for a better looking assembly)
angle bracket 1 piece
hardware 1 package.


The manual says the conversion kit is for a TA31, TA32, TA33, and TA 36, but Mosley told me to just follow the manual for the TA33 when I installed it on my Classic 33 WARC (#562110 back in 1993) on the driven element. It wasn't usable on the Classic 33 until they added the WARC element. At the time apparently the TA40KR was fairly new addition for the Classic 33 that they hadn''t updated their manual(s).

Let me know if you need it photocopied or faxed. FYI the whole thing was printed by Mosley in ORANGE ink and isn't the easiest thing to deciper since it refers to Mosley parts numbers, etc.

In contacting technical service at Mosley, they could not offer any help accept to order a manual. Can anyone provide a copy of this manual ?? I tried to put the ends of the add-on to the "Blue radiator" and found that the ends of the add-on kit and the radiator end are both the same size !!! Missing coupler ???
