Webster BandSpanner

[FRED HOLNAGEL]

Hi Eugene. I have one.Loosen only the little nut on top. Pull the antenna 
completely out until it hits the stop. Look carefully and you will see lines 
etched into the steel marking the aprroximate setting for each band. The 80 
meter one is about 4" from the nut. Start there and tune with your SWR 
meter. Do the same for the other bands. I mark each spot with a fine 
waterproof marker pen. You can clean by unscrewing the larger nut and 
pulling the radial contact spring out. These antennas are becoming hard to 
find. Haven't seen one in years. Fred W7PRV
