I need to "trim" the steel whip of a two meter antenna, and have not been sucessful in finding an easy way to cut. Tried a vise-grip with its close-in pinchers, and also tried a heavy duty pair of wire cutters, but no go. What common tool can be used to do this ? This steel whip sure is tough !! Thanks !! 73 de Jim K4PYT I use a small rotary grinder to cut a line around the whip and snap it apart in a vice. -- Leon A computer without Microsoft is like a chocolate cake without mustard. running Linux http://www.okv.ca/ |
