This plate is a vital component, used in pairs, to secure a PVC pipe (bottom) loading coil onto a MFJ-1910 33ft or similar fiberglass antenna pole. It takes the place of the original adapter due to its inside diameter being slightly too small, requiring filing to fit the antenna pole snugly. To ensure a perfect fit, I recommend modifying the ID and OD to match your specific PVC pipe and antenna pole requirements. For my setup, I printed four of these plates for two individual loading coils, one for 160 meters and another for 80 meters ham bands. The notches provide a secure grip for positioning the adapter and facilitate drainage during rain. My plan is to use E6000 adhesive to bond these plates to the inside of the PVC pipe, allowing it to slide over the antenna pole easily, making removal convenient when changing bands on the antenna.
