Hello Steve,
I am using a 10m-fibreglass pole made by DK9SQ which seems to be pretty stable.
Further information can be found on www.qsl.net/dk9sq or the www.eham.net
product review .. unfortunately the pole is not as cheap as the fishing rods, I
think it's about ¬80 ..

My aerial experiments have come to a halt. I was using a lightweight fishing
rod (fishing people call them whips) to support a vertical wire. The rod is
neat cosmetically and easy to handle. I had it fixed using a small wall
bracket sold for holding TV aerial poles. In the recent high winds, the rod
has snapped off at the bracket, clearly not up to the bending strain so I
need something a bit tougher, perhaps fibreglass - any suggestions on
products and sources would be most welcome.
Thanks
Steve
