Looking for manual for OLD Hy Gain 18HT Vertical, Original version circa 1960's
 

I'm trying to resurrect an old one I bought in 60's, and can't find
the original instruction sheet. It was a single sheet of paper,
folded to the size of a business envelope, and it had the whole
shebang on that one sheet. I have a copy of the newer version
now sold by MFJ/Hy-Gain, but for some reason the side element sizes do
not seem to be the same. For instance, the 40 M element is shown as
sticking up about 80" above tower top, I don't remember it sticking up
that far.

Anyone know an online source that may have this? I wrote to MFJ and
am awaiting a reply, but if I can find it for free and quick it would
be nicer... he he...

Jim,

Try http://bama.edebris.com/manuals/hygain/hytower/ or
http://bama.sbc.edu/hy-gain.htm.

The file does not indicate WARC bands, so it may be the one you need.

After checking, it's the new tower in this link. I'm hoping the
element lengths are all the same.

I wrote to Hy Gain, as they say they will supply old manuals
for $5.00, but since MFJ took them over they don't even reply,
really pathetic. I also ordered some parts online, no reply
so far. I wonder if they have a death wish?

Funny thing is, I know I have the manual here somewhere but
can't find it in all this junk. I know you fellows never have that
problem.... he he....
