No, I think James was looking for a coupla hunks of straight 
section.  Looks like I'm going to need some after all, though.  I think 
I'll try to talk the club out of the three sections that James didn't want, 
including the top section.  I'm having to change the design of my 14-30MHz 
LDPA to all aluminum tubing instead of mostly wire elements, (it seemed 
like such a good idea in my head) and this is going to increase the weight 
of the antenna to well over 60 pounds, not including the rotor.  I don't 
think I can support that kind of weight on the push up pole I have been using.

I'll tell y'all what, I'll trade the club the power supply that David is 
working on for the 3 sections of tower including the top section and 
whatever clamps and what not that are associated with it.  David thinks he 
can get 20-25 amps out of that PS, and it would be good for the EOC or the 
trailer either one.  I want to get one of those RadioShark switching power 
supplies for my jump bag anyway.  They are so much lighter.  :)

What say, prezman Darrel, wanna call for a vote?

Wheeler dealerly,
