[Elecraft] RE: 35' antenna mast

[DAVE HEALY]

This isn't 35', it's 33' and won't support a yagi, but I use two of them =
to support a 130' quasi-sterbian curtain.

It telescopes, is fiberglass and has been up since last October.  Bottom =
is about 2", top about 1/4". Collapsed it's about 36", I believe.

The fiberglass is impregnated with carbon fibre, or carbon filler making =
it very strong and resistant to UV...HOWEVER, it is also somewhat RF =
conductive, take that into consideration when planning your =
application/installation.

Here's a picture of one side of the curtain support:

Here are the particulars from Kanga US:

US$99 + $7 shipping.

A little expensive, but it's down in minutes for field day.

Good luck!
