Hi,
Can anyone give me the source for ten foot fiberglass poles?
I want to use 4 of them for the spreader for the 40 meter Moxon rectangle
we used for field day. We used a 2 inch diameter, 20 ft long poly pipe and
it was too heavy. It worked pretty well even though it was only up
25'. It was resonant at 7030, with a SWR of 1.2:1, fed with RG58 to the
ground then RG8 to the rig. It was designed for 7200, so it needs a bit of
trimming. It had 1 to 2 S units of gain over a vertical, depending on the
direction.
