Hi,

I have already checked and I come back without the answer so maybe that some
of you could help me...

Does it exist manufacturers of very light HF beams, using light and quite
resistant material instead on steel or aluminium, the purpose being to use
it on portable ops, in the field, on vacations or to install it for a
week-end or a very light mast.

I don't speak of wired beam like hexabeam and others quad that require a lot
of time to be assembled and that are fragile, but standard 3 ele made of
light material (and I don't speak of bamboo, HI!)
There is well titanium but there are very expensive (see titanex)...

Do you know any other very light material used to made HF beams, and some
URL of manufacturers ?

Thanks in advance

Titanex is a German company. They make beams out of a Titanium-aluminum
alloy. Light but not cheap. Word is they may not be a great supplier /
vendor...at least not to the US. Their US distributor cancelled their
contract.
