## Discrepancy

DURING C3 CHECK AT LHT (BQN) ON 05/2018, CRACK INDICATION WAS FOUND ON 6 FASTENER HOLES ON THE LIVETV ANTENNA DOUBLER WHILE ACCOMPLISHING LFEC INSPECTION OF THE PEDESTAL DOUBLER (PN: K21105-001). SEE REF /1/ EO FOR MORE DETAILS. LHT REACHED OUT TO THALES FOR REPAIR DISPOSITION AND PROVIDED REF /2/ EA WITH REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS. THE REPAIR CONSISTS OF REMOVE FASTENERS, ACCOMPLISH INSPECTIONS, REMOVE AND REPLACE DOUBLER & TRIPLER PER THE REF/3/ DRAWINGS. EC A18-415-01 ACCOMPLISHES PERMANENT REPAIR PER REF /1/ EO & REF /2/ EA WITHOUT DEVIATIONS; THIS PERMANENT REPAIR IS APPROVED PER REF /2/ EA AS CATEGORY A AND CLASSIFIED AS “MAJOR”.
