Thanks, Brian--

It's a whip, with a cylindrical fixture at the base about 1-2 inches in
diameter and maybe 1 foot high. Is this a "coupler?" If so, I'd be happy
to put it in anyone's hands who could use it. Do you know of anyone?

Cheers,

Dick B.

It sounds like a loading coil, which if properly tapped will offer
close to the 50 ohm match the receiver wants.
