Hello,
A friend out in Colorado had tried several of the launchers and found
that they were not accurate enough for him. So, he bought a hand gun style
crossbow. He then modified an arrow to connect his antenna too. Accuracy
problem resolved. Just make sure that where you live that you can fire a
crossbow.

Try www.ezhang.com
I recommend their square shooter version.
I routinely reach 65 feet height 100 feet hoiz. with half tension.
Don't need to reach further
as lightning and disease eradicated my 120 foot oaks.
The ez hang company will provide 1 day delivery.
You probably don't need it as they are located in Virginia - 4 land.
I am also sending you this message to your email.
Appreciate your telling me if this message reached you via the tower talk
list.

> Merry Christmas to all. Santa failed to bring me a pneumatic ball antenna
launching gun. Does anyone out there have one that they are willing to part
with? Or perhaps a rental or secured loan? I really need to get my 160
meter loop back up while the getting is good. Being the only "active" ham
in my county, I don't have any playmates when it comes to antenna erection.
All my info is good on QRZ including our web page. Any help? Thanks and our
wish to all for a healthy, happy and peaceful New Year. (((73))) Bob K4BG
