However it will be with my Black Widows or a pair of Eisenhower's........... I bought a ip 68 connector and cord for my pro golds. Not a big fan of wireless but do have a set of Quest phones for the WS6.. I stand corrected on the 11” coil. I also moded my antenna wire thru the shaft. I coiled it similar to the CTX so I can open and close for transport. I also have a CF straight shaft on the way. We shall see how that works out.

Skull diver Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 12 hours ago, Carolina said: We shall see how that works out Nice and clean setup.. I'm waiting for a straight shaft too, so for now I'll keep the original one like it is to avoid it soon as I can... For water and underwater use, I tested this morning with success the beach P11 with minor tweaks. Even if salt sensitivity was the right proposed factor to tune, I soon realized that higher reactivity up to 2.5 is mandatory to don't get crazy among noise. With 95 general sens., 9 salt sens. and 5.9 disc I was fine with it. Beach Sensitive in the water is just unusable, neither Beach P, unluckily.

Bill (S. CA) Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Love this mod, perhaps XP will incorporate something similar. Makes total sense. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a small wooden dowel. You must heat the antenna with a heat gun ( like pvc heat gun or Wagner paint stripper ) not sure if a hair dryer will work. Being careful not to burn. Heat wire and then place in freezer for 15 min. Repeat this 3 times total. Then remove from dowel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
