One solution (I have seen work) is to squirt 'Great Stuff' into a foot or so of
the open end, and let it form around a skewer. After it dries, pull the skewer out for the drip hole. Great Stuff (comes in a can) is a foam insulation, much like styrofoam, used to seal window joints, and so on. It is transparent to RF below about 3 GHz When you squirt it in it hardens up and suppress the driven oscillations.Bummer that you have to pull down the antenna though... Also, some folks use nylon rope in the elements as a damper. Perhaps someone who has succeeded with that will respond. Best of luck on this or other solutions. 73, Chip N1IR |
