[TowerTalk] 10m question

[J. Hector Garcia XE2K]

you can use wire , copper pipes, brass pipes, stainless steel  or gold if you want,

the cb wips are 3/8 24 at the base you can use a  mirror mount to support the wips oposite  insulated from the base ,  there some vendors have for sale this base , to mount any  sinlge band  wips  for any hf band    i hear some people using 2  80m resonators  in that configuration  with good performance

> is there any reason why you could not use 2- 102" CB whip antennas for a 10M dipole? Connect the shield of the coax to one and the center of the coax to the other one using a homemade bracket out of something non conductive to bolt the 2 whip antennas to,at 180 degrees from each other...like this <---------  ---------->                                                             ↑  -
