Topband: Pneumatic device for throwing antenna wire over the top of a tree

[Tomas Magyla]

Dear all

some time ago there were some discussions on reflector about how to
make a pneumatic device that could be used to launch a fishing line
with sinker over a top of a tree for attaching wire antennas..

I would be greatful if someone could point me to the right direction
where to find that info.

After wasting a couple of hours or so in complete darkness when my
antenna kite has fallen down during the Oceania CW contest last
weekend, and trying to throw a sinker/piece of rope to support wire
vertical (well it was 80m not 160m), I realised enough is enough..
