I picked up an excellent condition 40-180 a couple of months ago and of course the rubber wiring is shot. I've rebuilt the chassis and now need to work on the antenna. Is there a way to disassemble the paper coated antenna without destroying it in the process? As expected, the paper is brittle but not to badly. Any advice?
