Since when, Luc? Is this a New Years' resolution of some sort?

Naw ... I always clean the exposed parts of antennas like this one, and spray 'em with marine spar varnish for protection from the elements (pun intended).

Both antennas - my Cushcraft A148-3S and the WB2HOL Tape Measure Yagi - are rated at about 7dBi - well, at least that was when Cushcraft was making the A148-3S. I don't know what MFJ's version will be rated at.

OOOPS - We weren't going to cause trouble ... (grin)
