I took my old flop tube out which I purchased from Aviat about 10 years ago and this is what it looked like:
As you can see, there are three rather fat "O"-rings on it, they appear to have held up ok, no pieces missing. As near as I can tell from the picture in the catalog, the ACS flop tube has one "O"-Ring on the end and is $70 as compared to the Avait one for $270. I know it a previous discussion, the use of "O"-Rings was discussed with rather negative overtones, but these don't seem to be coming apart. Any thoughts?
