I went back along the KVR and tried to find your antenna.....No luck unfortunatly.Maybe a Muley is using it as a set of antlers!

What kind of whip are you getting, Almac? The 108"? What's it for?
Shakespeare has a really nice set-up to go with an ATU that comes in four foot sections so you can work with a 1/4 wavelength off of the wagon (with adapters so you can work NVIS) or set up an half wavelength on the ground with guy lines. Here's the brochure: I'm looking at the 120-60.
Getting back to Bby Radio, I know Bob so I can make arrangements at this end for you if that helps but I am not sure when I am heading up to your neck of the woods, although that coffee sounds mighty tasty... smiles.

i need the #LAR-W270B . it has a black center coil.
Whip element 144-148/442-448 MHz Black.
i would drive to the coast, but going there just for an antenna would be silly i think...

So a dual band aerial, you need a mount? I have a PC Tel w/trap. What if we shipped it off to you then we could take a rain check for the coffee... PM me any appropriate information and we can ship it via dog sledge or greyhound.
