Hey Wes,

I've been meaning to reply to your post but was bogged down on a 
Raspberry PI project.  So I saw an MFJ 43 ft pole that got a YouTube 
review by K8MRD:

This is his review video:

Then there is this company out of Germany I believe, but with a US 
subsidiary, called Spiderbeam.  Their fiberglass pole measurements are 
in meters but just multiply by 3.2808 to get feet.

I have a DX Commander 30ft multielement vertical antenna which is built 
around a fiberglass pole.  It works for me but it's not really what 
you're after I believe.

BTW, I got the Raspberry PI project to work earlier today!  So I was 
happy about that.  Hurrah!

Good luck!
