| Thanks all. 256.75" it is. One more question: The Cushcraft 1-3/8" 
center element sections EA and EH have internal reinforcement, as is 
clear by the fact that the fiberglass center spacer is 1" OD but the 
next 1-1/4" sections EB telescope into the outer ends. It would be 
helpful to know the details for an accurate wind survival analysis. 
My guess is that there's a longer section of 1-1/4" OD, and a shorter 
additional 1-1/8" OD at the inner end. Anyone have an unassembled 
sample in hand to inspect with measurements? Poke a tape measure down 
inside? 
Thanks again,
73 de Dave, W6NL/HC8L
