I went to a TRU in Warrington, in NW England, looking for pretty much
the same thing - the looks I got asking for slinkys and hula-hoops - let

At MY WalMart when I asked around for Slinky I met a Vendor stocking
shelves who was a HAM, invited me to visit their meeting and said I'd
made a good choice for an improvisational antenna, told me how to rig it
using a WalMart telescoping fiberglass fishing pole
