Hygain uses very thin wall 7/16 diameter element tips attached to a much
larger swedged tube. In my experience these elements rattle and break with
no rope so it is probably a good idea to use it. I do not like trapping in
water with end caps so perhaps you can fasten the rope using a cable tie.

Mindful of Steve's 'Prime Directive' which suggests I absolutely should
use the
dampening rope in my recently acquired used 155CA, what is the experience of
the TowerTalkian brains trust of the need for the rope in a 155BA/CA at a
relatively exposed site?
