Subject: C31XR vs. TIC Ring
Author: Cliff Bond <WA4MWM@triad.rr.com>
Date: 20-Oct-2002 20:11:16
There is something I am not understanding. The C-31XR has 30" open space at
the center. Won't this provide adequate clearance? What is the obstruction
issue?

I have on-order 2 C-31's to use with TIC Rotors on a Rohn 45 under the C-51.
When I discussed this arrangement with Tom, he did not indicate any problem
with use of the TIC Rotor with the C-31.

Is there something I am not understanding?

Thanks,

Cliff
