I am looking for a few small items for the final installation of my 
"Inverted L" on 40 and 80 meters.

(1) one insulated stand off about 2 to 3" high to nail into the side of 
a telephone pole so I can terminate the vertical leg insulated from the 
pole.

(2) need 100' of a high power version of RG-8.  (I will be running full 
legal limit)

(3) need three low DC voltage (5volts preferred but 12 will do) relays 
that are SPDT to switch in and out series capacitors when running 80 
meters. Contacts must be able to handle 4 amps RF when closed but I wont 
be switching while key is down.

(4) need 50' of a 4 conductor cable to use to switch the relays (real 
low current stuff)

If you have any of the above and are willing to sell it, contact me 
directly and lets see if its economically feasible.

I can find all of this stuff new, in the catalogs, but if I can find 
used stuff from other hams and the shipping and price are not too high, 
why not help someone clean out the garage and save some money into the 
bargain....#8-)
