I really like the RFA-4087 from RF Parts (http://www.rfparts.com/coax_accessories.html , under "Coax Strippers and Prep Tools" toward the bottom of the page). Sells for $48.90 and works with LMR-400,

Homeowner's Policies vary from state to state. In Texas (home of the original poster), the tower is not covered under a standard HO policy. That's what we get for letting the insurance companies run

Rich didn't say they did, but just to be clear..... The ground rod driver bit shown in the link will NOT fit the Harbor Freight hammer drills. I have yet to be able to find one that would. The Harbor

Does anyone on the reflector have any experience with a version of LMR-400 made by a company called Tram (may actually be Tram Browning)? Any thoughts on the quality -- good, bad or indifferent? Larr

Thanks to Gary (K9GS), Jim (WB5OXQ), Roger (W7HH) and his other brother Roger (K8RI) for the info on Tram-Browning's version of LMR-400. Hope I did not miss anyone. I was not asking so much from a co

Adam, Does your Fastenal carry true EHS cable? I didn't see anything but aircraft cable and wire rope on their website, but I might have missed something. The type of cable has implications on the ty

You may have just answered one of the great mysteries of my morning commute. Recently a 2000 foot commercial tower was erected not too far from where I live. It has BOTH flashing red lights and strob

I have K0XG rings. Getting around them is not as easy as climbing a straight tower section, but it is doable if you are remotely in shape. Takes a bit of getting used to and can be a bit unnerving to

If only Alan had also left the "L" out of the word "tilt" he would have had an epic subject line. In the recent past I saw ADs for a tilt Boom-to-Mast fixture in CQ and QST which allowed a beam to ti
