[Elecraft] Re: Field Day Antenna Setup

[Peter Wollan]

I couldn't see a price for the Blue Sky mast, but anything that high
quality has to be expensive.  What about a spiderbeam on one of their
50' aluminum masts?  (www.spiderbeam.us)  Or, the MFJ fiberglass mast
at 40'.  Last year for FD we built a hexbeam and put it up about 50'
-- it was wonderful.  DX Engineering sells a hexbeam center plate that
we'll buy this year, if we do it again.

These are all 20-15-10, of course.  Decent gain, good F/B, and published specs.

Like donated computer equipment  -- a donated antenna may not fit your purpose.
