 |
|
Greetings, Looked in the Aeroelectric achieves and didn't see the follow issue. I originally installed a triplexer believing I'd have dual VORs and a GS. Panel plans changed and I am not using second VOR antenna lead.
What to do?
a. Spend another $140 to buy the Diplexer?
b. Just leave it port unused?
c. Use the second VOR lead for a hand held? (wrong orientation?)
d. Or is there something (balum)? that I should plug into the 2nd VOR antenna feed to improve the VOR #1 reception?
Thanks for the help....

Bob, Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I tried the tool a couple
of times on three different sizes and didn't like the results, more smash
than swage. By what I could find on the web, the dies barely accommodated
the wire size much less a termination. The 00 size worked okay on an Amp 4
gauge terminal, but I didn't think it was going to be that useful. The
hydraulic cylinder was handy and worked well and I thought briefly about
remachining the dies. In the end it just went back to Harbor Freight.

Thanks, Homer GBYM
It isn't necessary to have relatives in Kansas City in order to be unhappy.
