[Boatanchors] [Heathkit] FS: Heath Cantenna

[Richard Knoppow]

      I found the MFJ cantenna on their web site.  The oil is about $30 
a gallon.  I don't know if this includes shipping.   My vetranary 
mineral oil cost about $25 a gallon.  The performance of the transformer 
oil is significantly better for not much more money.   I don't know what 
is used in place of the PCBs AKA Askerel, but it evidently works OK.  
PCBs are very toxic.  A web search will get you more than you really 
want to know.
