[ADXA] Three Antennas For Sale

[Steven Rutledge]

I have three antennas for sale that I can bring to the ADXA convention 
if anyone wants them.

1.  Cushcraft made vs. MFJ, D40 rotatable dipole.  I have had this 
antenna since it was new.  It was recently assembled and placed on my 
mast.  It interfered with my XR-5 on 17 meters so severely that I had to 
remove it.  Like new condition.  Last retail I could find for it was 
$260.95 but I think it was a lot more than that when MFJ discontinued them.

2.  Cushcraft D3W, as new, 30/17/12, rotatable dipole, 2KW.  I used one 
of these to work Bouvet on 30 meters.  My original was made by 
Cushcraft.  I have two new ones that were made by MFJ. The latter were 
improperly assembled with the self-tapping screws for the traps inserted 
with maybe 1/2 turn if that.  I disassembled both, put new screws in 
them, replaced the caps.  I used this antenna and my F12 C3e to work 340 
entities, 337 on CW. The last retail price I could find was 225.00 but I 
think they were much more when discontinued.

3.  Directive Systems DSE3-50 LVA rear-mounted six meter antenna.  It 
was bought new by me.  I had it on the tower for about a year.  It is 
like new.  I mounted it at 40' thinking I could catch some E on it as it 
was lower than my big antenna.  The season ended before I could really 
try it out.  W3LPL says your six meter antenna should be between 40' and 
50'.  I never got a chance to confirm it.  This antenna sells now for 
$264.95.

If you are interested in any of these antennas, make me a reasonable 
offer and I will bring them to Little Rock.

I also have a disassembled C3e that needs U-bolts and pop rivets.  It is 
a great antenna.  Also, a six-meter antenna, 30' in the tube as shipped 
from the UK.  New opened it.  Long and heavy. I cannot transport 
either.  I have offered the C3e before.  It is about to go to the dump.

Please email with any questions.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at Little Rock.  Sounds like a great 
program management has worked up.
