[CQ-Contest] AVQ-14 tophat length

I have my AVQ-14 down for now, not using it, but I ran out and measured it:

The vertical whip is 36 5/8 inches
The four cap hats are 11 1/4 from the machine screw that holds them in
place. Don't forget to leave enough to wrap around the bolt! I'd probably
just cut them a foot long and 3 feet for the whip and work with that....

good luck & 73,
Brad
