N1LO HF mobile antenna part question
 

I'm planning on building the N1LO HF mobile antenna as outlined at:

http://www.qsl.net/n1lo/mobilhf.pdf


As part of the coil fabrication, he describes "gromment strips" used to
hold the coil together. A McMaster-Carr part number 85085K8 is
referenced for the grommet strip. The McMaster-Carr website does not show
this part number as a grommet strip, but rather as a nylon edge trim, and
not serrated. In fact, a search of the McMaster site does not reveal
anything described as the "grommet strip".

I did manage to find grommet strips listed at other sites, but since I
wish to place an order for other items from McMaster, I'd like to get the
grommet strips from them too.

Can anyone shed any light on this?

Tnx

There is a hotmail address for N1LO at
the very end of the link you posted. You
might try that.

I've emailed him on our local club
reflector suggesting that he post a
response to you on the newsgroup or that
he send me his current email address,
which I'll pass on to you, Ed.

Thanks, Chuck. I now see that I overlooked the hotmail email address
for him and have resent my query to that address. If your efforts
generate a response from him, so much the better.

Thanks again.

Did that days ago. It did not bounce, but no response so far. Maybe
he's on vacation? No biggie. As Mike responded, I could always send
him a snail mail....

Just heard from Mark. He suggests trying
this one:



Good luck!
