SSB Antenna/spare backstay

SSB backstay antenna/backstay
I had this SSB antenna/Backstay made for my H49 but decided not to install it. It has 80ft of 1/4 in - 1x19 316 SS (Working breaking strength of 8200#), 2 Ronstan insulators and ends. the top insulator is 3 ft below the top fitting and the bottom is 25 ft above the bottom fitting. the distance between the center of the insulators is 48 ft. see attached pictures. $350 plus shipping. Pictures coming soon!!

picture 2 - one of the 2 ronstan insulator
picture 3 - bottom fitting
picture 4 - top fitting
picture 5 - not to scale diagram
