Hi Paul

I have 3 40 meter verticals here and they are all moade out of telescoping 
pieces of aluminum tubing.  they start out at 1 1/2" and go down to 1/2".  I 
found that the amount of taper differed on each vertical, so that made each 
one a little different in length.  Seems like buying an element from a 40 
meter beam might be a lot more expensive.  73 and GK
