[Mobile-Portable] Hustler mobile "stinger lengths"? Other questions.

[Philip, KO6BB]

Hi All,

Today a friend of mine bought me a 'set' of 4 "regular power"  Hustler coils 
and the MO-1 fold-over mast.  The entire kit and caboodle cost $20.00 at a 
Ham auction.  Everything is in VERY good condition.  The only problem is, 
the coils were in a box and all 4 "stingers" were removed from them and tied 
in a bundle.  I would "assume" that the longest stingers go with the lowest 
frequency coils, etc.  But you know what they say about "assume".

Here are the 4 loading coils I have, and which, incidentally I was going to 
buy "new" next week (all except the 10M one).  So, I feel pretty lucky! 
Especially since I was going to buy the regular power ones anyway and NOT 
the "Super" coils, which I've read are actually more lossy (lower "Q") than 
the regular ones.

RM-80 (will it tune 75 also?).
RM-40
RM-20
RM-10 (this one has the number rubbed off, but being so small I suspect it's 
the RM-10.

Anybody here have any of these coils and can tell me about what "stinger 
length" they used to get them to resonate?  Yes, I'm borrowing a MFJ antenna 
analyzer next week, but it would be simpler if I didn't have to pick and 
choose between the various stingers. . .
