Vintage Antenna Specialists Co. M-400 Starduster.

[Tokin]

Lighly used and in great shape for its age. Plastic and hub/radial threads are in good shape. All radials look straight. Looks like it wasnt up but for a few months. Connections could use a buff with a green scrubbie pad. Complete except for the #8 x 3/8" ss screws and a couple washers.
Will be shipped in a length of 6" pvc pipe to insure safe shipping.
Ive got $150 in it and thats what ill take for it plus shipping.

I love my starduster, I have the sirio version on the corner of my garage. I use it with my cobra 18 with a 203 to keep in touch with the guys when I am out working on the mowers and cars. This is a good deal for the original, the hub looks really strong. Looks stronger than the workman or the sirio version. If I didn't already have one, I would get this.

I have an original new old stock Antenna Specialists Starduster that really performs well for me. This antenna suffered a nasty fall a couple years ago and has been in its box until I recently decided I was tired of the dipole on the roof. Two of its radials snapped off cleanly at the hub. I was able to drill them out and use steel threaded studs to screw them back on and secured the whole thing with a giant glob of Duck tape. I'm using a Cobra 29 GTL with an Astatic D104. 35 feet up. Works Great! Awesome ground plane! 1.2-1 SWR.

You're almost 2 years too late!

Yep, very late though it never hurts to ask. The antenna specialists models generally don't last long.
Your best bet is to set search alerts on ebay and be ready to pay.
