[TowerTalk] Force12 rebuild

[N5KM - Kris]

Hi Howie,

Good info in your write-up. Thanks for the alumoweld source.
Bill, W2AY, also provided that link. I had checked the various wire sources
but didn't think of MFJ/Hy-Gain.

Re: seized standoffs. I had checked with Tom N6BT but he said they weren't
available anymore. He suggested hex standoffs. I found some of the
appropriate size
from McMasters. I'll be using liberal amounts of anti-seize.

BTW, this is being rebuilt as a 30m yagi to be side-mounted at 55 ft.

73,
Kris N5KM

Hi Kris,

I went through this a few years back and published a blog on the process
including links to materials:

Good luck and have fun!? I did...
