Won't ask about masts any more. Looking for 1/2-inch wall 2"OD titanium
now. Tower might come down but not the mast.
Now a serious question posed to antenna reflector from which I received
suggestions but no solid answer. Anyone remember, have, know or hold
information on the driven element coil (coaxial fed) for the old Mosely
VP40-2 vest pocket beam (used redwood supports)? From the late 50"s for the
youngsters.
