Hi Folks:
A while back, several folks posted links to a number of telescoping
fiberglas pole sites.
I've visited the Jackite site. They are offering their 32' poles
(black or orange) for $54.
I thought someone had found similar poles for a bit less than the
Jackite price, however I may be in error here.
The Jackite poles look quite good and appear to be reinforced in the
placed which would normally require such reinforcement.
I have several 30' 'Hot Poles' from an electric company. They failed
the semi-annual HV QC tests, but will work exceptionally well for
general antenna support use (particularly during FD), BUT they're a
bit on the heavy side and a bit larger in diameter than I'd like to
have if I was gonna take the pole on a trip in the car. Something
slightly smaller / lighter is in order for such trips.
If you have a link to other ECONOMICAL sources of heavy-duty
telescoping fiberglas poles, please either post them to the reflector
(preferred) or drop a note to me direct.
Hope to order something yet this coming week.
Thansk,
Tom Hammond N0SS
