Equipment / Portable HF Antenna question
« on: June 16, 2014, 1514 UTC »
I obtained a portable hf vertical antenna several years ago   basically this on a tripod, slightly different mine has ground radials. The telescopic whip was rather flimsy and about ten inches broke off the top.  MY question is this:
1. will re-soldering a piece to the tip make any difference to the overall operation
2. Can I use a mfj random wire tuner with this (using just the center feed)

It has been gathering dust for years and we are considering using it during travel.
