Don't know where they came from but our club has one just like it on a 100w MSF5000. Works very well Chris N9LLO In a message dated 11/25/2009 9:52:05 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, p...@chargertech.com writes:
This set of cans has been in our club since before I was involved. None of us seem to recall where this thing came from or who made it. Does anyone recognize this one? <_http://groups.http://grohttp://groups.http://groups.http://groups.<Whttp:/ /g_ (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Repeater-Builder/photos/album/700689718/pic/list) > The cavities are about 4" in diameter and are 23" long. The top plate is heavy brass and is made to fit 6 spaces in a 19" rack. At first glance it almost looks like it is homebrewed. The cavities are not silver plated. But some things make it appear to be of commercial origin. The aluminum cavities have very neatly welded top mounting flanges and bottom endcaps, and are anodized/alodized. Also, the tuning rod lock nut assemblies appear to be custom fasteners, and the center elements have nice fingerstock at the bottom. We used this on a temporary, low-power machine a few years ago. Now, we'd like to really go through it and tune it up for a another machine. While I had it here, I thought I'd try to figure out where it came from. Thanks. 73 Paul - KC0HST
