    You will now get one of each of our 3 styles of weights with our kits and all 3 styles are listed as “spares” on individual eBay listings. Be sure to click on SELLERS OTHER LISTINGS to order extras.
    I have spare barrels, repair parts and both types of weights available ! 73’s and please stay safe!
    If you change your monofilament line out we recommend SURPASS brand PE line as the size equivalent is rated at 100 LBS and it’s much less expensive than the name brand braided lines.
    Winter is here and the leaves are gone which makes it an easy time of year to put up a new wire antenna or 2 or 3! We’re all stuck at home due to unfortunate circumstances. Great time to get some new wire up in the🌲 🌲 🌲 🌲 🌲
    These are really high quality antenna launchers made with the best materials available. I've never had anything other than positive nice comments selling these! I am proud to be able to list these for the manufacturer. We use well casings for our air tanks and the finest PVC bonding adhesives available.

    Proudly Made in the USA by a Licensed Amateur company for fellow Ham's. I have sold many of these over the years and everyone loves them.
    Perfect for home, field days, clubs, etc. Pays for itself first time you use it. This launcher will clear the tallest trees short of the Sequoia's.
    Accurate like a rifle and you'll be amazed when you clear your tallest tree's with ease the first shot.
    Fill with your air compressor at home, a 12 volt compressor for field days or just a plain old bicycle hand pump. Forget those frustrating sling shots or bows and arrows! Pick out the branch you want, aim and fire....attach pull rope or wire and reel in back over.
    Built with the best materials, gauges, valves available. BUILT TO LAST!
    Launcher breaks down to a manageable 30" and assembled length is 56” and weighs just under 5 lbs. Easy to store and transport.
    30 PSI launches the 2 oz weight 80+ feet minimum.
    40 PSI launches the 2 oz weight 100+ feet minimum.
    50 PSI launches the 2 oz weight 120+ feet minimum.
    All high grade well casing pipe.
    Maximum Air Pressure: NOT TO EXCEED 50 PSI FOR SAFETY!
    THIS IS NOT A TOY AND SHOULD NOT BE USED BY ANYONE OTHER THAN RESPONSIBLE ADULTS FOR THE INTENDED PURPOSE THESE WERE DESIGNED FOR!
    30 psi clears any oak or walnut tree where we live easily.
    Know your target area and keep people, animals, electrical wires and structures clear from launched weights!
    Air chamber leak checked for 2 weeks with (0-ZERO) air loss before shipping.
    DO NOT STORE LAUNCHER FILLED WITH AIR FOR ANY REASON!
    Complete Kit Ready To Launch Includes:
    1 Launcher
    1 Zebco 404 Heavy Duty Reel pre-spooled with 90yrds. 15lb Line
    2 Plain lead weights & 1 weight with molded in Brass Swivel
    2 Heavy Duty 1/2" Zip Ties to attach Reel 1 Needed & 1 Spare
    1 Instruction Sheet
    Note:
    A piece of Velcro is included to prevent the reel from slipping on the reel seat barrel. Attach it to 4” pvc section below valve.
    See photo that shows how to tie weight to monofilament. 2-3 times through the weight followed with a good "fisherman's knot". This knot will not come undone or break if tied correctly. If you don't use a fisherman's knot...YOU WILL LOSE WEIGHTS!
    Instructions:
    #1 Close valve and fill to 30-40 psi. (50 psi is absolute maximum pressure.) DO NOT EXCEED 50 psi for any reason ever!
    #2 Securely attach weight to line (see note and photo for correct Fisherman's knot) and load in barrel until seated at valve stop.
    #3 Push reel button to release monofilament line, aim launcher and release valve.
    #4 Wait until weight falls to ground.
    #5 Carefully lay launcher on ground.
    #6 Disconnect weight and attach your antenna pull line securely to reel monofilament line. A little tape over knot prevents any snags or knot from coming apart if not tied well.
    #7 Pick up launcher and reel line back over tree.
    #8 Disconnect antenna rope, re-attach weight to monofilament line for storage. (Do Not store launcher filled with air.)
    #9 Attach your wire to line and pull antenna over tree.
    Note: Teflon tape is added at factory for any screw together joints like barrel assembly. Be sure to use Teflon tape on the threads and breakdown will be easy. Never use a wrench or pliers on the barrel or gauge....it's not needed. Hand tight is perfect!  ALSO: DO NOT set launcher up on it's end! We use a rounded cap purposely to discourage standing the launcher up on end. If the launcher falls over you may damage the reel or possibly break the threaded barrel fitting. Carefully lay the launcher down flat when not in use while in the field. We have spare parts available if needed, but with a little care it should last a long long time.  Be sure to wash your hands with soap and water after handling weights. Keep weights stored away from children.
    Weights can be painted a bright color or attach a 12” piece of bright thin ribbon to help locating your weight.
    Pre plan your job with height, direction, pulleys if wanted, etc. and you'll be DXing in no time. If you have tree's close together you can clear multiple tree's in one shot. Put up 2 dipoles and end up with North/South & East/West!
    If you have ever tried putting up dipoles using ladders, sling shots, bow's and arrows or settled for a low antenna....this will be the best radio tool you own after the first time you use it!
    Safety warning: DO NOT EXCEED 50 psi FOR ANY REASON!
