Default Source for good trap boots for tri-bander???

Howdy all....I am in the process of rebuilding an older tribander that
I have and need some input. I want to replace all of the trap boots,
but don't know where to get such a thing. I'm not sure what kind of
antenna it is. I originally thought it was a TA-33 jr...??? The traps
have a diameter of 1.5'' and the anntenna diameter is .75''. Any help
would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave - KB8NNU

If it is a HyGain antenna you can still order parts from MFJ. I rebuilt a
TH6-DXX a couple of years ago and ordered all new trap caps and end caps
from them, no problem.

Your tribander most likely was made by:

Mosley (The TA-33jr had a 12 foot boom & color coded traps);

HyGain/MFJ (TH-3JRS also has a 12 foot boom)

Check with your local motorcycle shop. They have boots for the the front
shock absorbers that I have used in the past.
