Youloop antenna repair

[ethanbowering24]

The used youloop I picked up has a damaged SMA connector on one of the loop branches and the feed line. Can I just shorten the bad branch, reterminate it and then repeat on the other branch to match the shortened length? How closely do the lengths have to match?

I'm assuming I can just shorten the feed cable without worrying too?

Shorten the feedline is no issue at all. In regard to the bad branch, you are shortening it so little I do not think I would mess with the other branch unless I found a need to. But truthfully, personally, I would just buy another for the $50 or so and keep the old for parts.
