[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 969994, member: 325666"] So ..I wuz robbed ... This antenna is made ..not from wire ..but 2.5mm capillary copper tube ..but the 12 element came up a couple of cm short ... I ordered enough tube to do the job ..but they short changed me .. Not to worry I'll just sweat a little copper wire stump in the end of the last element.. So ..still needs a bit of teasing into shape then taping to stop movement .. but here are 3 photos .. a ) the collinear wound around the 40mm centre pipe .. b) partially inserted into it's outer 50mm sleeve .. ..and C) just to show the nice end stop weatherproofing cap I got .. It's a start.. lol[ATTACH=full]92865[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]92866[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]92867[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
