I knew Lou personally. UST wound up not only with Tristao but the tubular
Wison masts that Lou's son bought from Jim Wilson now N7JW. Tri-Ex was
owned by Frank Clement. He sold out to Tashjian much more recently. Also
part of Tri-Ex was bought by another firm
(Pi-Rod as I recall) mainly for the commercial users.
