[TowerTalk] VHF/UHF Yagi Horizontal Support Material

["K6QD" <k6qd@cox.net>]

What is the recommended support material for horizontal support of small
(boom length <15 ft.) VHF & UHF yagis (144-450 MHz)?  My guess would be FRP
tube with sufficient O.D. & wall thickness to provide the required strength.
The calcs. are easy but depend on the material.  My primary concern is the
environment, e.g. sun in So. Cal.  Thanks, Mike
