[Elecraft] OT: A real-world Cantenna caution (:-)

[Ken Kopp]

If you have a Cantina, I suggest that you open it
and check for water droplets on the bottom of the 
can.

The can "breathes" as it warms and cools, and 
moisture in the air will condense on the bottom
of the can.  Since few of us disturb (move) the 
DL, the water droplet may well rust the bottom
of the can at that point and a leak will result.

If you see a drop of water, use a straw of small
piece of Tygon tubing to siphon the drop out of
the can.

It's a good idea to set the can in a pan ... just 
in case.
