I recently acquired a Solarcon A99 antenna (at no cost). I have been
trying unsuccessfully to find more information about it other than it
can be used on the ham bands with an antenna tuner (and a few bands
without?)

I am hoping to find some instruction manuals, the design and the
cut-away view of the antenna. Others have suggested this information
is available on google, but I haven't found it yet.

Thank you for any help.

A few years ago KG6AOH wrote 2 articles on the disassembly "EXPOSED"
of the IMAX 2000 and Solarcon Antron 99 antennas. I do not believe that he
currently has a website with this information.
