[Towertalk] Refurbishing Trt-banders

[James R. Duffey]

Frank - Sorry I can't help you with the article on tri-bander refurbishing.
But among the tips I remember from the various posts on refurbishing
antennas are:

1. Broken trap covers can be replaced with heatshrink tubing. Digi-Key sells
large diameter heatshrink tubing in this country.

2. Use No-Alox or similar compound when reassembling the antenna.

You have already disassembled the traps and cleaned them. Replacing teh
hardware with stainless steel as you have done is also a good idea. Taking
apart those old Hy-Gain joints made with the compresion clamps can be very
hard. Does anybody know a simple way to do this? - Dr. Megacycle KK6MC/5
