>   Ready-made wire antennas
I saw anything in CQ or  QST about ready-made bazookas. High
prices avoid me to buy HI HI, but I believe that will be FB antennas.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

>   Antenna wire (up to 80m/240ft span)
>   Wire antenna support string material
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

>   Baluns (1:1, 4:1, others...)
The best balun for low power (100-500 watts) is from PY2EYE hands!! 
you can write him via pu2mhb@sp-gw.ampr.org. PY2EYE Nilson has
special kind of work in baluns...

>   Prepared open-wire feeders or spacers for making them
>   HV fixed/variable capacitors and inductors (for matching)
>   (Egg-) insulators and other hardware...
> 
>   Mail order vendors for the above, preferably one that
>   carries most of the above and provides prompt service.

> If you have comments or advice for me on any of the above,
