I've heard the Slip-Nott works pretty well.
I have an Orion 2800 and pinning the mast voids the warranty. Not sure about
the Yaesu though. Also their mast
clamps are cast aluminim I believe and not sure how they would hold up under
the torque.
Champion Radio products makes a mast bracket replacement for the 2800 that
should eliminate ANY slipping. Maybe
they do one for the Yaesu also?
GL!
