I'm looking for material for a 25-foot-tall non-conductive mast to use with
a K9AY loop.  PVC, even sched 40 and 80, has not proved stiff enough.
Fiberglass should work but the pricing I've seen for pre-packaged kits
seems out of line.  anyone got a line on a source for telescoping siuzes of
fiberglass tubing and rod, such that I could splice 4 6-foot pieces of
tubing together?
