Howdy Gang.
Putting my meager satellite station together and have just purchased two “pre-owned” SSB preamps for 2M/70CM.
Needing two U-bolts to secure the preamps to the mast I went in search of such U-bolts in a large hardware store today.
Close but no cigar…I has suspected that the needed U-bolts were probably metric since the preamps came from Germany.
Can some kind sole point me in the right direction to order two of these U-bolts?
Does anyone have the correct size I can reference in placing an order?
Does anyone have two on hand (even used ones) that they can spare for a reasonable price?
Many thanks for any assistance.

Why don"t you just bolt it to a small scrap piece of aluminum or whatever and then drill that for the appropriate clamp you are going to use. WA8EBM
