New Assembly Instructions

I have updated the Antenna Launcher Instructions with a new version that has many improvements, updates and a few corrections. In particular the assembly procedure for 3D Printed Endcaps has been added which will start shipping in kits soon. These have been shipped on the pre-assembled launchers for some time. They offer easier assembly and better service since the barrel can be removed without removing threaded components from the main pressure chamber.

See the Info tab above for the Launcher Assembly Instructions. Older versions are also available for those who are in the midst of assembly (generally it is not good to change instructions in midstream), or who wish to refer to or use older instructions.

Ramping UP

Took a break for Field Day which was a bit strange with social distancing at the site and many group members working from home. Now I’m ramping back up. Making lots of Antenna Launcher parts, have shipped a few parts orders and will start shipping kits and assembled launchers this week. Thanks for your patience.

Field Day 2020

I just took a big batch of orders to UPS and USPS. Field Day will be here soon (June 27-28), and we are manufacturing and shipping as fast as we can. Orders shipped after this week will not arrive in time for Field Day. After this week we will be preparing for our own socially distant Field Day camping trip to the mountains, and order processing will resume after we return. Antenna Launcher orders placed after about the middle of May will ship after Field Day. My apologies for the delays, we have had many challenges recently. Thanks for your patience. May everyone stay healthy. Now back to the shop…

See you on the air during Field Day!
