I am in the process of adjusting and installing an MFJ-1775 multiband
dipole.  I would appreciate any comments or useful advice from other
users before I proceed to the installation.  Some of the concerns I
have are:

- Should I cover the inductors to protect from the weather (rain,
ice)?  If so, how?
- Should I take any other precautions to strengthen the antenna or
protect from corrosion?
- I have heard some users have burned up the inductors with only a few
hundred watts.  Comments?
- Any other...?

73 - Kris, TF3KX
