I received a number of good replies to my request. My attempt to reply
to the reflector with a summary was bounced. The error was "The
message's content type was not explicity allowed". Perhaps it was
because I included links to websites?
The insulators I used to have and want to purchase are type 500D.
(Thanks Stephen K0SD).
Various companies were suggested, such as AeroBase Group, Army Property,
Surplus Sales, Cable Connection Supply, and CSG Parts. You should be
able to get their urls from google. Texas Towers was mentioned. I am a
past satisfied customer of them, but the smallest insulator on their
website is the 502 (too big). Davis RF was suggested, with whom I have
also been satisfied in the past, and their part #10-72 has the correct
measurements. I have ordered some from them. Their customer
representative, April, mentioned that other people have been ordering
them lately too. I replied "Of course, it is December in New England,
time to put up more radio towers!"
Thanks for all your help.
