Greetings!
I have been playing with the "Ham Sticks" and using these to build rotatable 
dipoles. The one I built for 10 meters works great and just bought the ones i 
need for 20 and 40.
i fashioned a bracket that mounts the antennas end to end and attached the 
center conductor to one and the braid to the other (just as you would for a 
dipole) then i turned about six turns about 4 to 6 inches in diameter to 
decouple the coax and ran it into my rig. my 736 loaded just fine and the 
automatic tuner handled the entire band. the only characteristic is that it 
is very very directional, bad for a local net i try to join once and awhile.
real cheap (the hamsticks are about 18.00 each and about 20.00 worth of 
brackets, mast and coax) and it works!
sidenote... any comments or improvements Wayne??
enjoy
