Hi, Dick,
Where do you suggest I find tubing of suitable strength for 140MPH/3
second, 22 square foot antenna load? Schedule 80 pipe isn't strong
enough, according to my calculation. Have you found a solution to this
that I'm not aware of?
I haven't purchased this yet, and am open to ideas.
What would you do, rather than spend money on 1026 tubing and galvanizing?
Thanks for your constructive comments,
73,
Mickey N4MB
