[KL7AA] Fiberglass tubing for masts

[Mike Tibor]

Any specific reason you want the mast to be fiberglass?  The reason I ask 
is that after it's all said and done it might be cheaper to buy a steel 3 
section mast from Frigid North.  Each section is 10' and with a 1' overlap 
you'll end up with about 28' of usable height.

It will also be stronger than fiberglass, which could be an issue with the 
multiple antennas you describe.
