Silly question time

Couldn't I just cut a bit of the end of mine then to make it a 34" springer?

silly answer time .......

yes you could , but you will find the mini springer is made out of slightly thinner rod , so if you cut your springer , it wont be truely resonant at the frequency .... ie ..... your swr will be out

Fez_uk · 18-04-2011, 21:59

no, the coil is different on the mini springer (alot tighter)

briggie · 18-04-2011, 22:02

and as fez says , the coil is different too .... so ..... not really a good idea
