Why would we want to save band width?  This would be good information for all to have as there are a bunch of these antennas out there.

MFJ sells the XM240 which is very similar.  Are there enough similarities to be able to use the new parts.  Assuming you can get parts from them.

You can purchase plastic tubing at McMaster-Carr in a variety of types and sizes.  If you cannot find something that fits the 1 1/4" Cushcraft element you may have to bore the inside diameter of the insulator on a lathe.
