One thing I noticed was that after a\nmonth\nin the elements / rain, the studs connecting the aluminum\nelements\ntogether had corroded pretty severely -- I think the aluminum\ndidn't\nlike all the rain, and I could barely get the elements apart.\nI've\nseen some reports of other hams using arrows fixed on rotors in\ndry\nenvironments (Arizona), but if you're going to leave them outside\nin\nthe rain, you might need to take precautions to prevent corrosion\nof\nthe element connectors.\n\n73 de Dave KB5WIA\nhttp://kb5wia.blogspot.com\n\nOn Fri, Jul 22, 2011 at 10:12 AM, George Henry <[email protected]>\nwrote:\n> Anybody have any experience with the solid-element single-band\nyagis from\n> Arrow?
