[BULK] - [TowerTalk] LM470 Coax Standoff arms

[Steve Katz]

Normally, the shortest standoff arm goes on the lowermost section and the
longest goes on the uppermost, and they pretty much line up.  Keywords being
"pretty much."  -WB2WIK/6

"Success is the ability to go from failure to failure with no loss of
enthusiasm." -Winston Churchill
