I hate to be a big ignoramus, but why, if this is not an issue for
Gedas' 10 GHz mount, is sweating joints that seem to be similar to his
design a common practice in machinery design? Can someone help me
understand what I am obviously missing?
If it was me I'd stick it in the oven and see what happens. If that
didn't seize it up, then I'd put it in the freezer and repeat the
experiment.

This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

Technically the circumference does. If I did the math right in my
head, that means the diameter changes faster than the coefficient. If
I'm wrong, it isn't the first time. Nor the last. If I'm right, it
isn't a very big deal with antenna sized tubing anyway.

Thank you grant. I was not sure how to interpret that linear expansion
as my situation is using round tubing. Not sure if the diameter would
change at the same rate as in a linear strip of metal. 73
Diameter grows at the same rate.
