Thanks for the close up pics John. I've been browsing the catalogs and internet to come up with a scheme that will work. I have been looking at MFJ and the Lakeview site. How well does the 40 meter stick do for you?

I have an MFJ-941D antenna tuner that I use, so I can also use that for the "dipole." I only work CW, so don't need a lot of bandwidth.

Back to the site and catalogs, now that I "think" I know what I am doing

How satisfied are you with the performance of the hamstick dipole?? I've been struggling with Hustler verticals and they just don't do as well as I hoped....hence the desire to go horizontal.

I have a 5th wheel that is very similar to yours, as far as the layout. My ladder is at the slide out end though. Is there a reason you didn't use the ladder as a tie point?? I do like the idea of the wood in the sewer hose pipe !!!
