Well, a 100 foot tape isn't too expensive. Companies dealing in 
survey gear, such as Inner Mountain Outfitters 
<http://www.innermountainoutfitters.com/keson-survey-tapes/> 
carry ones graduated in feet and 1/10s on one side plus meters 
on the other side. Perfect for Antenna work (and cave surveying).
