    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!

      I need a 40 ft pole to tie off
        the end of a 90 ft dipole. I see Channel Master has a
        telescoping 41ft pole available on Amazon. I wondered whether
        anyone had experience with this product and wether there were
        better and cheaper options?
