[TowerTalk] which rope for element anti-vibration

[john at kk9a.com]

I would take N6KT's advice, he seems to know how to make Hy-Gain antennas
hold up in a very corrosive and windy environment. I had a 203BA and 204BA
without rope or end caps and they shed the very thin wall Ø7/16 tubing tips.
I gave the 204BA to P43A.

 If it was me, I would add the ropes per the manual. It's a small price to
pay for added insurance against tip failure.

 I'm about to put up an older 103BA, the manual has Telex/Hy-Gain names and
MN address on it and says to install the rope, but I checked my elements and
it doesn't have it. If it survived this long, I think I'll put it up this
way...
