[Antennas] TACTICAL PORTABLE MASTS?

[Eric Lemmon]

Jay,

Fair Radio Sales offers some unused surplus military radio mast kits that
are perfect for rapid field erection.  The mast  kit I bought is 40 feet
high when erected, and comprises ten 48" sections.  The kit came with eight
guying ropes, a baseplate, four stakes, and even a hammer to pound the
stakes into the ground.  I've used this on Field Day with great success.  I
believe that the company also sells individual components for such mast
kits.  Go here:
