[Elecraft] OT: DX Engineering fiberglass pole

[Ken G Kopp]

 I believe someone in this thread asked about the DX Engineering Fibreglass
pole .....

I have the pole ... the quality is excellent ... BUT it is HEAVY and too
flexible
to be self-supporting.  It does require more than one set of guys.  I have
a means
of base-mounting it (on an RV) but it's too flexible to even self-support
without any
load.  I don't think it would break, but it might well fold completely over
when
fully extended.

I had intended to use it on the RV to support the center of a light-weight
Zepp
as an inverted vee.  It -is- a good product, but not for what I want it
for.  It's for
sale ... (:-)

FWIW

73!
