I was factoring in the discovery time. Certainly one retainer screw removal wasn't an issue. I'd passed along notions, quotes of "unusual", "non-typical" et al, with regards to the Golden Eagle; which may have added time to the investigative processes.
Perhaps your experience with this...
Diamond Super Gainer ++
Now there is an "attractive" alternative! That will work for me!
Certainly not your typical Fugly fender mount.

You have only the two choices. Attractive and ugly. A Stryker SR-A10 which is in keeping with your $67k, after financing, boat. The SR-A10 will handle 5k watts, making full use of all that junk in the trunk, AND lights up when you Xmit. :)
Fugly option: Full and appropriately lengthened with...
Very Sorry to hear you and your father have both been infected. I'll pray for you.
Someone should pay for all the misery and death he has unleashed. He won't.
I was very interested the DDS-VFO until the costs were added up. Granted the DDS-VFO has a couple bells/whistles more than just a Frequency Switch Mod; but, the accumulated cost of bag of DDS-VFO parts, assembly of said parts, restoration from Switch Mod, then installation of DDS-VFO mod. You...
Had I imagined the switch contact to be at fault I wouldn't have known to repeatedly engage the grip switch; to wear through the oxidation film. Silver doesn't corrode, but oxidizes. Who'd have known what 46 years of sitting, unused, would result in such a malady. A Professional found it out...
Marriage Consummated.
46 YO Virgin has lost her cherry today and has been wedded to Cobra 2000GTL.
No magical potion or lube needed. Just a smart Electronics Professional and one day later it's fixed and back in my hands. Thanks Daniel; aka Sambo. Valero Truck Stop CB Shop exit 147 I-20...
My Cobra 2000GTL has 70 extra channels non-repeats. My radio has the Switch Mod using the ANL or NB and ANL/NB combinations. Not to my liking.
ANL only Chnls 15-27; 26.815 to 26.955, chnls 31 and 36; 26.995 and 27.045 respectively.
NB only Chnls 1-40; 27.605-28.045.
ANL/NB Chnls 15-27...
I was of the understanding 1/2 wavelength and longer don't require a Ground Plane. Whether that's true or not, I can't argue with experience.
I used the original Imax GPK as it may or may not have resolved my RFI issues with the neighbors. As it happens I also added a Fugly Choke Balun at the...

Sirio Gain-Master Hi-Tech Fiberglass 5/8 Wave 10m & CB Base Antenna $189
I'm certain the GM feed point is 4-5" above the boom over a Sirio...
Holydrvr said, I have the parts to do the same electret conversion, but I have not been able to bring myself to do it.
I bought a 3 element electret kit from Fleebay. Kit had puffy oversized yellow sponge through which to insert the elements. Too much mass for the available space between face...
How stupid of me. I had the impression you were looking for a quick 10-15 minute setup. Surely the Sirio Sy-3 was what you had in mind from the start. I can tell you from experience you're not going to meet that goal.
Wouldn't add another 5 minutes to add a 4th, the SY4. and DBd 10 DBi 13 and...
My local radio repairman chastised me for electing to install electret condenser mics in place of the 46 yo original crystal mic. If the Triple set of electret elements on a custom ABS disk board doesn't work out I can switch back.
But it has to work,RX audio, with Cobra 2000GTL first before...
That would certainly meet all I've gathered from this thread. I might add, 25.5-30 mHz "no tuning required" description means what; not tunable?
Do check out Solarcon Imax 2000. Another fiberglass 5/8 that is Tuneable. I see em as low as $120...
In summary I gather from all that has been said, it'll doable.
Get the monopole as close to the Yagi as possible whether that be with 30" horizontal radials as with the 2016 or other similar monopoles. But I don't want diagonal radials extending downward through the horizontal plane of the beam...
