Use a 2mm Allen Wrench for HamSticks

I have a number of HamStick antennas that I use with my Truck.Â* Over time,
Ive lost every one of the little pesky Allen Wrenches that they come with,
and couldnt find the size listed anywhere on the web.

I suspect they were designed with a 5/64 Allen Wrench in mind, but Ive
noticed that occasionally slips with some of my worn set screws.Â* A 2mm
Allen Wrench is slightly larger (2.000mm vs 1.984mm), and seems to fit more
snugly.

T-Handle Allen Wrenches, either 5/64 or 2 MM can be found for $4 on Amazon
