I'd guess the same as Dick, Static electricity although I don't remember seeing any in mine. OTOH it's at 90 feet and I don't plan on going up to look. It's 34 degrees and supposed to dump a mix of rain and snow in a couple of hours. <:-))

It's going to get replaced with a DX engineering unit about 10 - to 20 feet off the ground along with a "6-pack" in the terminal box at the base of the tower.

Anyone familiar with the Ameritron RCS-10 remote antenna coax switch?  I
am interested to know the design purpose(s) for having a 100K ohm 1 watt
resistor (in most cases) between each (8) SO-239 center pin and ground
in the relay box?  This resistor is not shown in the manual schematic.
