I am installing a Hustler 5-BTV vertical. The Traps all have plugs in
the top end and are color coded to the band. orange for 10 meters, red
for 15 meters and green for 20m meters, The plugs are made from
material that looks like a spong the installion manual says nothung
about them. Are they supposed to be removed or not.

Color coding is sometimes the fastest method top identify the trap -- after
year outdoors !
