In reassembling a Telrex antenna, I find that one of my pieces of element
tubing is bent.  Its a twelve foot piece of 1.375" tubing, tapered at each
end to 1" (to mate with a .875" tip).  Its .058 wall.

Does anyone have any experience trying to purchase tapered aluminum
without going back to the antenna manufacturer?  (Which is not an option
in my case).
