[Elecraft] Push Pole for Mystery Antenna

[WILLIS COOKE]

I bought a 40 ft fiberglass push pole that seemed just the thing for my Carolina Windom.  I planned a support bracket at 12 feet and guys at higher levels.  This turned out to be an expensive mistake.  It was so limber that I could not get the Carolina Windom installed.  I replaced it with four sections of 2-inch PVC Conduit using the same support (a section of Uni-Strut across the roof peak) and three sets of guys.  It is not easy to erect for one person either, but possible if you are fairly strong.  A thirty foot mast would be pretty easy.

If this interests anyone please contact me for more details.  I don't know how much general interest  exists here.
