[Milsurplus] [armyradios] BC-148 Antenna replica ?

[Hubert Miller]

Thanks for the info, Tom. Saves me trying to scale up measurements from the photos. 
Occurs to me maybe I could exchange cash money to someone qualified to do metal work for a replica.

>I  have a note in my files that says that the two lower legs of the loop are 32.5" and the upper legs are 36.75".  The manual says it is brass tubing and IIRC is it 0.75" square.
(Square brass tubing is not cheap.)  The sections are hinged which you can see in the photos.
See attached.  
There was one displayed at the MRCA West meeting in 2000.

The photo shows Bjorn Forsberg at the controls.  Is Bjorn still around?

Does anyone on this planet have an original antenna from which to 
take measurements?   I made an antenna for the BC-9 out of copper
tubing, but that was a “functional” replica, not a physical one (made
contacts with it, too :-)
