I would not use motor oil. Without looking at a MDS, I don't see it as a safe alternative. The manual says use transformer oil. Mineral oil is the alternative mentioned. I used a PCB free oil. Unfortunately the smallest amout I could find was 5 gallons. I brought 4 more cantennas hi hi

Subject: "Cantenna" With Motor Oil?
For some bizzare reason, mineral oil is very hard to come by in my county. Some ham says he actually uses motor oil for his homebrew "Cantenna"...:

...and I was wondering if anyone had ever tried this with the Heathkit Cantenna.
Thanks,
