Hi guy, N1UUE here. I just viewed several of your 2 meter quad construction videos, I enjoyed it a lot. You have to admit that using PVC makes the project pretty simple once its all measured and the wire sized. My 10 meter 2 element version uses an 1.5 inch sched 40 because of the increase boom length and the wind loading. I thought about building a 2 meter version myself but 10 meters seemed to match my interest at this point. Great job. 73's Bob
