[TowerTalk] C4 Complete, but...

[Jim Reid]

Aloha,

But,  I have two lengths of tubing left over??

Each is a 48" length of 3/4"OD tube;  each
has a 21" length of tubing slipped over it.
One end of the 21" tube is 2" from one
end of the 48" tube;  the other end is
25" from the opposite end of the 48"
length.  There are a few  1/8"
rivet holes drilled along the lengths,
including a couple which pass through
both tubes.

There are three rivet holes in the inner,
longer tube, very near the end of the
outer tube,  near the center of the
long,48" tube.

One of these assemblies is labeled A,
other B.  But unlike every other tube
which came in the C4 kit,  there is 
no element number.  

Per my measurements,  all eight elements on
the C4 are the correct length,  so I have
no idea for what these two left over assemblies
might be included.

Somebody will probably write back and say
something like,  "you dummy,  didn't you
read the manual all the way through"!  I
think I have,  several times,  hi.

I finished the linear loading set up this morning; 
put black tape over the exposed PVC,  and
now am ready to put on the baluns,  attach
the coax,  and hoist all into the air.  Probably
on Friday afternoon,  or Saturday.
