The harness is always the hard part. May luck be with you.

Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Pager antenna-Amateur Band modification II
In response to my earlier posting on the RB few quarries are there,
hence I wish give the following for further thought:
The antenna is CELWAVE PD340-TP2 with 4 Separate folded dipoles on a
big aluminum pipe mast. The connecting harness is routed through the
pipe mast. This particular antenna is with 12Mhz bandwidth and tunned
for 162-174 MHZ. All the specs. are available in the website
www.rfsworld.com.
Scaling the dipole elements as per ARRL Antenna handbook are possible.
It is made of 10mm rod and the length of the dipole is 80cm., cutting
and adding another 5-6 cm in four lengths of the folded dipole (to
make the length to 91cm approx), can be done with best craftsman, to
bring it tuned to 145.5Mhz.
My present concern is with the harness inside the pipe mast. Will it
join happily with my modification? or have to modify the harness also?
HOW ??? HELP!!
