UHF Aerial Fixing

A bright, Sunday morning... Damian thought that he'd spend a bit of time sorting out Retro Rock-It's somewhat flaky UHF radio...


The radio itself is relatively new, but there's a loose connection somewhere...


Damian did some impressive soldering work under the dash using first a lighter, then an actual soldering iron (for safety reasons).  There are no pictures of this, because he needed both hands to do the actual work!

Funny story though - after finishing soldering and putting it all back together again, Damian stood up out of the car and stumbled, catching the soldering iron between the ring finger and middle finger of his right hand, causing a small but nasty burn... 

The other job was to adjust the angle of the dangle for the LED light bar so that it shone on the road, not the trees...


Stay tuned!
