@@vegasfordguy I just got a spt500 & a Vector4000 going to assemble one of them this spring to replace my MacoV58. Any SWR issues with your 500? When it rains?
@@miguelsalami Not yet, I sealed every section with automotive RTV silicone at the joints. So far the spt 500 is good, but the bandwidth is very narrow compared to my old Tornado 27. Make sure to support that vector 4000 well, they are flimsy in high winds.
@@vegasfordguyGood deal, Ya bandwidth is same on V58 & when it rains SWR climbs very unstable antenna. If you still have the S27 you could modify the insulator with PVC.
Beautiful Radio I was looking at one of these earlier tonight & thinking of buying 1. Yours is kickin A$$👍👍Thanks for sharing!
Thank you. I'm going to compare it to my Hopper built Cobra 29 here pretty soon as far as how it sounds over the air 45 miles away as the crow flies.
