I agree, finding the proper sized swedged tubing elsewhere would be quite difficult. Shipping 5ft or 6ft packages is done all the time and most businesses have discounted shipping rates. I have purch

Several years ago M2 would supply it. I needed some pieces for a KT36XA that were bent in a tornado and they did it. Perhaps they have changed but I doubt it. 73, Larry W6NWS 1 each: 1 1/4" x .058 x

Another good new option is an outfit called Metal Supermarkets, which has locations in many major cities (but unfortunately, the closest one to Rich is in Oklahoma City).  Their Baltimore location cu

"You can accomplish the same result by using a short sleeve of the intermediate sized tubing at the joint,..." I agree with Tom on that. I ordered several 40m verticals from Invonantennas (sp), a com
