I've also used 3" irrigation pipe supported in the 3" PVC. I've telescoped 2" pipe inside the 3" pipe with aluminum bushings that I turned, to make a number of adjustable and portable vertical elemen

Hi, Dick; You ask a very pertinent question, especially for those who might use irrigation pipe for portable antennas. The answer is no, aluminum irrigation pipe is lightweight. I estimate that the 3

Hi, Dave; I make the bushings from a piece of 3" aluminum tubing with 1/2" wall thickness. I cut off about a 1" length for each bushing. I turn one bushing for a sliding fit outside the 2" pipe. That

I have made some bushings by cutting hacksaw slots lengthwise on short pieces of tubing and squeezing it together to insert. I picked up a beam from the estate of W7BUD which had a piece of 3 inch ir

30 ft of 3 inch 0.050 inch wall (the standard) weights 16.5 lbs. It is very easy to handle, but you need the bottom anchored to push it up (you can't stand it on its end "free hand" unless you are ve

Does anyone know what the resonant freq. is of the 30ft of 3" tubing without the addition of a top hat? Thanks, dave wa3gin -- Original Message -- From: "Rick Karlquist" <richard@karlquist.com> To: "

It probably depends somewhat on your radial/ground system, but I get about 7.84 MHz with EZNEC. Dave AB7E _______________________________________________ _____________________________________________

EZNEC predicts the resonant frequency is near 7.9 MHz. Adding a top hat of 4 spokes 2.5 feet long lowers it to near 7.1 MHz. Adding 2 spokes 2.5 feet long brings it near 7.4 MHz 73 de Red ___________
