Ive not really touched it in a long time and have never opened the traps. 15m is suffering so I may have a bad trap. So, I did a net search and not too many have posted how its done. SOOOO, with that I come hat in hand for hints/tips etc from those that have went there. Scotty N7HJ And one other easy thing that definately helps on VHF/UHF, is cleaning the aluminum elements. I use scotchbrite pads with aluminum cleaner. As I remember Brasso maight be a substitute. Someone correct me if I'm wrong there. If the cleaners aren't available, just the pads plus light detergent followed by a good rinse will do a lot to clean up the skin of the element. Tom K0TAR What do you do to protect them afterwords ?
