[TowerTalk] 40-2CD

[Ted Bryant]

Lloyd,

I had to replace the original screws that connect the loading coil to the tubing in each loading
coil assembly (LCA) on my Cushcraft 402CD.  I split the original heat shrink and trimmed it back
only far enough to expose the screw connections.  I cleaned each connection and used a new stainless
screw to replace the original.  Instead of using new heat shrink to weatherproof the connections I
used alternating layers of a good grade of electrical tape, Scotch 33 or 88, with "liquid tape".

73, Ted W4NZ

Hello All

I'm trying to replace some traps and I'm wondering what kind of heat shrink to use and a supplier?
It looks like the old heat shrink had some kind of mastic on the inside.
Any help would be appreciated.

Tnx  Lloyd  K5ZO
