I'm just saying.Valid argument Steve, but in my world the cost if replacing the cables every 3 years is much cheaper than me spending time lubricating cables on 4 crank up towers. And how easy were the recabling instructions you got from UST to follow? 73 Alan NV8A _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list TowerTalk@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |
