Not sure where you are located but have you considered a rebuilt Rohn
push-up pole? They come with guy eyelets on floating rings and are
pretty rugged and reaonably priced. There is a company here in the
Tampa area that sells them at the local fests. I believe they come in
30 - 90 foot lengths. I have a large 160m air coil I believe came from a Gap, and another large coil on a form w/doorknob caps that I believe came from a broadcast antenna, that I plan to use with a push-up pole or my Rohn 25 tower (perhaps one on each as works best). Look forward to your reports of your planned vertical. 73, doc kd4e Macie, Gordon wrote: I plan to use #10 self drill stainless steel screws. I have a friend with a drill press who is going to help with that. I plan on 1 set of dacron guys.. I have a gap challenger vertical about the same height that has been up 3 years with same guy arrangement. _______________________________________________ See: http://www.mscomputer.com for "Self Supporting Towers", "Wireless Weather Stations", and lot's more.
