[TowerTalk] Increasing power capability of 6-meter yagi

[Pete Smith N4ZR]

I have just bought a small Cushcraft 3-element 6-meter yagi.  Only small 
fly in the ointment is that it is *only* rated at 1 KW.  It looks to me 
that this limitation might relate to the feedline connection, which is a 
bulkhead SO-239 (mounted with a big nut) bracketed to the center of the 
driven element.

My question is, do I need another connector here, or maybe insulation 
between the bracket and the element?  If so, what material makes sense?  
Any other advice?
