Several years ago there was a thread about this subject and I believe the consensus then was taping the caps upset the capacitance of the trap enough to detune it. Think this came from the chief engineer at Hy-Gain, Roger, WD0??? or Joe, W1JR. Not recommended. 73 Bill, K4CIA _______________________________________________ See: http://www.mscomputer.com for "Self Supporting Towers", "Wireless Weather Stations", and lot's more.
