After having a major project at work that involved a large amount of aluminum welding by our fabricator, I started to wonder why I had never heard of hams using aluminum welding to _more securely_ fabricate large booms and elements (eg. 80m and 40 m full size elements for yagis and verticals). Other than the obvious problem when deconstruction is desired, are there any other downsides to welding telescoping aluminum elements? 73, Scott W3TX |
