[amsat-bb] Screw threads on Arrow?

Wed Aug 5 21:50:55 UTC 2015

That is the LENGTH

The thread of the piece is either 6-32 or 8-32. If you can't find the same
pieces you can buy the parts at Home Depot and cut off the head

Ahh yes, my mistake... Anyway there is a spare parts list that came with the
antenna (I have it) but it does not list size, it says 2 - 1/4 stud.. but
that does not answer your question..

If you need this list or would like it I can scan it and post it or send it
to you..

Sorry for the confusion

David, KK4QOE

I was going to answer this then realised he is really talking about the
elements themselves? I've not looked yet.
