Make my own .... Using in my case OLD antennas from R/C transmitters no longer used. I attach them to the side of the BKL level allowing them to extent outward and at any vertical angle one wants. A lot of our local FT club members have copied the idea and think it quite slick !

here one still collapsed .. tho shows the idea.

Here one out with flag blowing around, but see how pending how far extended

and angle you can place the flag in line of sight quite well.

here an earlier design being a hard wire on a pivot being

able to be swung side to side .. tho not vertically..





Have fun MAKE YOUR OWN !!

Or, per Motorhead...roll your own.

or place a black zip tie on your scope or barrel wherever you want. poke a tiny hole in the tag end, and attach the string and indicator to the hole. Should cost about ten cents. If you are anal like me, you may want to put a wrap of electric tape on your scope before putting on the zip tie. Will help prevent zip tie from slipping/spinning too.

Zip tie is what I use. It breaks at the most inappropriate times. I even carry a spare. Thanks about the Rowan.
