Telescopic mast, where did it go? I can't find anything but that cheap
stuff they sell at Lowes that resembles galvanized exhaust pipe. Anyone
know where I can order the heavier stuff? (i know shipping's gonna suck)

I hope you don't have anything valuable attached to it!!

I fell into some gear, the nicest piece is an icom-720 with a nice power
supply. It's almost just what I was looking for, at a cheaper price than I
was willing to spend.

I need a recommendation for a desktop mic for it now.

Remember, I have it mounted to a tree, and I have brackets most of the way up.

Ever price some their headphones? Egad! My Archer headphones kicked ass
for that definitive Floyd album and I got them at a discount store in
the seventies for not much. This set lasted until about twelve years ago
when they were producing way too much static. Only drawback (imo)
compared to today's hitech models was this specific headset was HUGE!
Speaking of the mics, guess it all comes down to personal preference and
how much one wants to spend.....there are great dynamic mics and there
are great condenser mics.

Yeah, headphones to me are over priced. I've always liked there
quality of sound on the mics.

Admittedly, a good inner life is

Hello Stevo:

What is it you want to mount on the mast, the Interceptor 10-K? or some
other antenna.

A lot of guys have used the these 30 Foot Lowes Masts, but I suggest you
guy wire them every 10 feet with the good black nylon rope.

Nah, the 10-K is up already. I was thinking of putting a scanner antenna up
on a telescopic mast. A small ham radio shop not far from me used to have
nice heavy duty 50 footers, but he's about to go out of business and won't
order anymore.

Well, it's not serious or fatal. There is some sort of stomach infection. I have
to take another blood test to confirm.

I've got a mast from the former GDR-army for 150 EURos
one year ago and fixed it on a little trailor for fieldday use.
It has 30ft and I added a 10ft extension.
A Pan Blizzard 2700 5/8L is mounted:

Hello Steveo:

Yes the Telescoping masts seem to be drying up everywhere. As TV and FM
Antennas are not selling like they use to. Which was the main market
that kept the Telescoping Masts on the market. Even Radio Shack doesn't
carry them any more.

The Lowes 30 foot mast will work just fine for a smaller scanner or
VHF/UHF Antenna. But it needs to guy wired every 10 feet.

http://www.rohnnet.com/ROHNNET/rohnn...004/index.html

Rohn use to make a heavy duty telescoping masts, but Radian bought them
out, see the web site address there.

Many of the guys are using light weight towers to get there antennas up
at the 40 feet and above, even to the 70 foot level.
