I. My C51XR/H is down for mod to C51XRN and a new tower to permit the full 3-stack finally to go up (2xC51XRN, 1xC31XR/H in the middle). Chance to look it over. Report on my use of XIM400 on the C51XR/H last winter: the C51XR/H surfaces are in great shape. XIM Products Inc. 1169 Basett Rd. West Lake, OH 44115 (800) 262 8469 I got the XIM400 primer, clear color (others are available). Solvent-based; spreads easily with a simple paintbrush suitable for oil-based paints. I understand they also have a water-based version. I was able to identify my nearest Canadian dealer (Ontario) with a call to the company. Now I'm going to clean and prime my other older F12 aluminum for the winter season. I have no commercial connection with XIM. II. PVC insulator protection The C31XR/H manual mentions the possibility of putting tape over the PVC insulators to reduce UV deterioration. Has anybody tried a paint alternative? Would this work from an RF standpoint? Any recommendations or experience? 73, Jim, VE1JF -------------------------------------------- Force12Talk mailing list provided as a service by Force 12 Antennas, Inc.
