Pete,
You can sandwich the copper tape between a couple of layers of fiberglass
cloth, let them set up and then glue the rig in wherever you feel like. Bury
the copper tape directly in the foam of your vertical or glue it directly onto
your vertical stabilizer if it is already glassed and cover

Mark, Just came up after 2 hours of working on a wing to find that life above

for now I'll have to live vicariously through others.

I received several replies from people wanting the plans I offered. The only
fair way I could think of was to let them go to the first one (for a price, of

Having said what I did about carbon fiber, some folks make the antennas
themselves out of carbon tubing. If you can get the right stuff that will
allow a solidly conductive connection to the tube (aluminum spacer inside
with a screw and terminal through the bottom, perhaps), that'd probably

I don't think I came up with that idea, I read it somewhere like Jim Wier's
column or Bengelis or somewhere. There are other ways to do it, but
If carbon fiber "reflects radio waves" how come that is the principal
composite component in 'stealth' aircraft?
We use this type of antenna often in amateur radio. I do not like the
copper tape antenna used in the KR and intend to replace it with this
instead. Here is a link to the "Bazooka" antenna . If you have any
questions feel free to write me.

Pete,
I would suggest mail order look for kite spars.. into the wind in
Boulder Colorado has fiberglass wound spars 1/4 in od for about 2-3 bucks.
I hope that helps.

Pete,
Why not use a dowel rod with the copper tape covering it. You could also do
as I did which was to use a piece if 1/8" x 1" poplar with the copper tape
applied to it. If you just have to have a fiberglass shaft, go to the local
sporting goods store and buy a fishing arrow. They are made of
No, you can't use carbon fiber. It does reflect radio signals.

I'm trying to duplicate Mark Langford's comm antenna installation using a arrow
shaft to support the lower half of the dipole.
So far, all the local sporting goods stores and hobby shops only carry carbon
fiber arrow shafts. Can they be used in lieu of fiberglass? Somewhere, I

There are no KR2S plans. You have to buy the KR2 plans and the KR2S Supplement
plans, to build a KR2S. So might as well get a deal on the KR2 plans.

You should go ahead and get the $60 KR 2 plans , buy the KR2S supplement
from RR for $70, pay $5 postage for the supplement and you will be $100
ahead of the $240 price of the KR2S complete plans. Just my thoughts.
