[TenTec] Fiberglass poles?

[Jim Brown]

My neighbor, W6GJB, has built a 40M horizontal dipole using two 33 ft 
Jackite poles. He's a Mechanical Engineer by training and retired from 
the space program where he worked as an Aeronautical Engineer. He says 
the Jackite poles are good poles.

We also built an antenna using a Spiderbeam pole. It broke in a 45 mph 
wind because it's not well reinforced.
