FR>Greetings Friends,

FR>Last night we had one of the biggest blows I've experienced here in
FR>southeastern Washington State.  My four element five band quad didn't
FR>do so well.  There are three broken spreaders this morning.  While
FR>I'm procrastinating about taking it down, Ithought I'd do a little
FR>research on replacements.  The ones I have are the Cubex tapered
FR>spreaders.  I can get repalcements for $29.95 each plus shipping from
FR>Cubex.  As always happens, though, when my antennas don't survive I
FR>think about bigger and stronger ones.  I saw a note recently about
FR>Skypole vaulting poles.  I'll call them after the holiday.  Are there
FR>any other sources of spreaders?  I'm also tempted by to add 30 and 40
FR>meters so 18' or 26' poles are tempting me.

FR>Thanks,

FR>Rob KL7NA/W7


Rob:
Try Max Gain Systems
       221 Greencrest Court
       Marietta, Ga. 30068

They have some great hollow and solid fiberglass rod stock, shipable
UPS.

Good luck!
