Thanks, I think we are close! Mine is 9 bands, and easily tunes 6
meters, but otherwise it looks like the AP-8(A).

Thanks for your help here.

73,

Rick

I don't remember a 9 band version of the AP8(A). There were AP8 and AP8A
versions. Cushcraft manual for AP8A (1/4 wave - needs radials):

Cushcraft has since discontinued this model. There are web pages on how to
clean/repair the "trombone traps"
