Hi. I'd like to replace my bent and buckled 67ft vertical (built out of junk) with a more sturdy version. In the UK I can get 6m (19.6ft) lengths of aluminium tubing but the question is what size/gua

Thanks for the plug Tim :-) Some additional info not yet on my web site: I have made numerous scaled down versions of the 90 foot vertical. 60 feet of 3 inch (.050 wall) tubing works well when tilte

A plastic vertical ? Hmmmm... What were you going to use for a radiator ? Put a piece of wire inside of it? The "weld" of PVC conduit is stronger than the pipe itself. It makes the 2 pieces of plasti

Chris -- I think you were originally looking to do a 20m high vertical (i.e., quarter-wave on 80m). My observations about your ideas: Electrical conduit is a relatively soft steel not designed for st

Use multiple wires, cemented to circumference, ID or OD, to create a 'cage' to broaden the bandwidth. I have three antennas, up to 58', that I use for field day, made of telescoped 3" and 2" aluminum

It seems like one should be able to use one of the programs for mechanical yagi element design to solve this problem. An 80m yagi element should certainly work in the vertical position since its desi

Standard irrigation tubing is 0.050 inch wall. "Heavy duty" tubing is 0.065 inch wall. There is some "center pivot" stuff up to 0.100 or so. For GUYED installations, I see no reason to use anything
