[CA11] Antenna was difficult to remove is it ok?
I have a HD 4kw array radar that needs repair. I needed to get the array off to ship or replace the pedestal. After I took the nuts holding the array to the pedestal off eisily but I sprayed studs with PB blaster and tap several minutes on all the studs with a punch (threads protected by their nuts) to remove the array due to some corrosion binding around the studs in their pedestal holes.

Everything cleaned up ok and array looks fine but I’m wondering if the stud tapping was likely to have broken/damaged anything inside? The array isn’t broken to look at or shake but I don’t know how delicate what is inside is.

Is it more likely the array is still fine or damaged having been removed as described.

Also does anyone have an idea what it will cost to repair a pedestal with a burnt PCB? Trying to decide if I should buy a refurbished or try and repair mine.

Thanks!
