Target and Walmart have them here in the Orlando area.  But remember that
the cadmium plated is supposed to work best due to lower velocity
coefficient.  But mebbe brass would conduct better and the coils of slinky
slows the sig?
Tried inserting two 50ft coils in my 130ft (hi) bev with no improvement.  A
pennant made from a Titan DX Gap is giving good results, once I raised it up
to roof level.
Standing by to hear what you find out.
