Strong winds two days ago bent one of the elements of the 29MHz FM repeater into a crooked shape! This photo is after repair, the top one is X520H The upper yagi is the antenna for 3-elecetion reception of the 29MHz FM repeater The bottom is a 50 MHz 5-elec. antenna
Somehow it was broken from the middle. And that's just this element. No other larger antennas were damaged, including this one. Perhaps the element resonated with the wind and broke the screw in the middle, rather than strong winds.
The new pipe was reinforced by inserting a smaller pipe into the threaded penetration of the new pipe and riveting it in place.

Somehow the keypad text disappeared while the customer was using it! I contacted Kenwood Singapore, but they said they had never heard of such a case before. They scrub the letters with an eraser during quality inspections.
So we ordered only parts from a distributor in the Philippines and replaced them.
