If all you're doing is a few folded counterpoises, 1/2-in PVC conduit
cut into suitable lengths and drilled with holes for the wires to pass
works just fine. Experience helping a friend with his FCP taught me that
some means to hold the spacers in place along the line is a good idea.
PVC conduit is CHEAP!
I've built a half dozen or more fan dipoles using this technique. Some
have been up 120 ft or more.
