Default Aluminum tubing for vertical antenna

Hank,

Just wanted to add that you don't need 1/4 inch wall stuff anywhere in
a 33 foot vertical.

Thanks, Dan. I see that now and I think I'll start with 2" diameter
tubing in 6' lengths and taper down accordingly. I do get some serious
wind here from time to time.

Thanks to all who responded; I'm moving forward with considerably more
confidence in the outcome..
