[CQ-Contest] Hustler Mobile Whips

[Dave Edmonds]

Hi Jeff,

Those small set screws can be terminal out there on the road... A friend of
mine, Skip who makes duck decoys invented magnetic duck wings adapters that
attach to the decoy.  The other decoys use tiny set-screws, which the
hunters drop in the water or in their blind. Thought that was a pretty cool
idea... Don't know if this tech can be transferred to mobile antennas some
how...

Jeff... I have 40m and 20m hustler resonators with compression fittings.
Haven't used these lately...If you need these, I could ship them to
y'all.....
