pump it down, fill it with dry nitrogen, re-pump, repeat several times just like an AC system

I bought it several years ago for $180.00, new they sold for $1200.00. I lucked out. If you just let it drain it will not get all the moisture out, you have to use some kind of pump to put a vacuum on the line before you pump it full of nitrogen or dry air for a dehydrator pump. I use a dehydrator pump on my lines.

With a flat top roof, it seems the water level built up so fast that it came down some of the electrical conduits that extended about a foot above the roof level and flooded the equipment room on the 5th floor of the building. I think they need to work on the roof drainage before the next Hello Dolly. The repeater may be back on the air Monday - 73 - Jim W5ZIT --- On Sat, 7/26/08, de W5DK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: So,,,, who else drained a liter of water from a 600ft air dielectric hard line today?
