[TowerTalk] Polygon Rod

[cqtestk4xs at aol.com]

I recently moved out to KH6 and transported the remains of a 1000 ft coil which was still in the original coil configuration (8 Ft diameter).  The coil was purchased in 2011 and had been stored outside in a mostly shaded area.  Other than some green mold on it from being stored in a shaded area, when uncoiled out here a few months ago it appeared to be in excellent shape and I used the 200 feet that was left on the roll to guy my new tower at the top level.


It was 5/16 EHS equivalent and I bought it for about 65 cents a foot if I remember correctly, but that was back in 2011.  Call Polygon for a price.  It comes in a minimum 1000 foot roll.  Shipping may be an issue since the coil is light but the 8 ft diameter roll is cumbersome to ship.  


Guy grips are another issue.  PLP stocks them but you must get a box of 25 and they have a $500 minimum order.  A broken box less than 25 will be $$$.  This was their policy back in 2011.
