Ha! Ha! Ha!
Nice one Alan mate.
Here, my lawnmower lead isn't doing too bad up in that loft! Tied the ends of the ladder line together last night and threw out 30 foot of some of that washing line out of the shack window as a counterpoise. Firing nicely on 160m and had reports as far away as Finland.
Not much in the way of replies though, caught a few but we'll have to see if they bother confirming.
Got a lovely donation recently too, a dirty big partially used reel of three core flex comprising of some nice multi-strand copper wire.
It's what's in it that counts and especially what you do with it.
Cheers for the morning laugh Alan. Much appreciated. (Pee taking basket.)

Just made me think of your folded dipole when i saw it. Don't say what band the CB covers lol. Many times people list in the wrong category but listing title and picture is normally for the correct thing. Edit. My aerial is made with a picture hanging kit from Amazon.

That was a corker of a mistaken listing you found there Alan.
Or perhaps they were thinking on my 'wavelength'.

Haha I was looking at latest listings early hours on nights and saw that.
If anyone buys it just be careful of the large mic ️ Like answering the phone whilst ironing
