I was curious as to if these are similar to the Firestik II (Adjustable tip under the cap for tuning) as opposed to trimming wire. I'm planning on making a homebrew vertical dipole using two firestick type antennas and these would be a bargain!!!

I have a Copper Night Stick. It has an adjustable tip. I don't know if they are all like this or not. Call Copper and ask.

Assaulter, let me know how it goes! I just bought a mount for two whips and was planning to do the exact thing you are doing now. Make a low profile antenna for my base!
