Housing Gaskets

Each housing is equipped with a recessed woven-wire RF gasket and a silicone-rubber weather

gasket to provide a seal between the housing base and lid (Figure 2-6). These gaskets provide

efficient ground continuity, RF shielding, and weather protection. Both gaskets must be in place

and in good condition to ensure proper operation and protection of the station. The weather

gasket should be lightly coated with silicone grease each time the amplifier is opened. Replace

this gasket if it becomes damaged or deformed.
