Hi Don -- If you want to build an antenna launcher like the antenna bazooka or spud gun, check the Joplin ARC website at: <http://www.joplin-arc.org/pages/antennalauncher.html>
They sell a kit for $35 or $40 to build one using heavy PVC tubing pieces. Looks to be pretty neat and not too costly. Also using air pressure instead some exploding propellent makes it safer. They've even got a video showing the unit in operation. I saw these at the Joplin Hamfest in August. 73, Jim - K5LAD Date: Sun, 9 Oct 2011 08:31:36 -0400 (EDT) From: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 in the California QSO Party To: "Rem O." <[email protected]> Cc: ELECRAFT <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed; delsp=no What was the tennis ball launcher used. I think you gents called it an antenna bazooka or similar. I need to make one of those for putting up my loop. Where can I find directions.
