Excellent response from UK reflectorites - many thanks

Prices took a big hike when Strumech was sold to Elliot, and have taken 
another one on the sale to FLI. I spoke with Roy who told me Ron now 
handles amateur sales, and Ron admitted he doesn't sell much at the 
prices passed on from FLI. I have located a supplier who can do them for 
about £30 less than the Strumech price, including VAT and carriage.

I'll also be consulting the supplier about which grease they recommend.

That's an interesting link to Radio Structures, though I haven't checked 
their prices. John G3HTA is still on the Versatower part of the FLI web 
site, those pages were put together for them several years ago by G4BAH 
who assembled a comprehensive collection of trailer towers for the 
G0KPW/M6T contest station. We still hold the European record for CQWW 
Phone multi-multi, and hope to come back and defend the record in the 
next year or two.

73, Dave G4BUO
