Re: Vacuum Antenna

Disassembled the antenna and was able to get a better understanding of how this thing works. The mast is attached to a piston which is made up of 2 pieces. Between the 2 halves are 2 leather seals with an L cross section. Need to find a piece of leather with the same thickness and form the L cross section. Or maybe replace the seals with an o-ring. Like the bicycle pump idea - need to look around.
