Hi Don, The impedance of the antenna is fairly low. A metallic mast won't make any difference as long as it is more than a fraction of an inch from the wire. 73, Tom W8JI W8JI@contesting.com

Hello All My experience with pennants agrees with Tom's comments re metallic supports. I always used alum poles (Mil Surplus stuff) and thot mine worked okay. I did keep my pennant wire abt 2 feet fr

For K9AY and/or pennant/flag antennas the military surplus fiberglass mast sections that K4TMC sells look like a good bet. See http://www.geocities.com/tmastco/fiberglasspoles.jpg 73, ... Joe, K4IK
