[TowerTalk] HyTower decoupling stub question

Hello All,

I'm replacing an old HyGain HyTower that was first installed over 25 
years ago.

The stock HyTower comes w/ decoupling stubs for 10m, 15m, and 
40m.  The instructions say to install each decoupling stub on a 
different tower leg.  However, I also bought the MK-17 17m decoupling 
stub kit for 17m.  The instructions for this add-on are rudimentary, 
to say the least, and I'm wondering if installing the 17m decoupling 
stub means I must elect to not install one of the other stubs 
(ie:  10m, 15m & 40m).

Seems to me I can't have two stubs on one tower leg-or can I?

If someone else is also replacing an old HyTower, e-mail me 
privately, as HyGain/MFJ has changed the tower base and the new base 
does not match up w/ the concrete base tube alignment in the old HyTowers.

73's.....Mike/K9AJ
