Mark -
I'd not think of using the painter;s extension poles. They are a bit flimsy and too short for a DKAZ or flag/loop.
The Jackite poles are fairly common in ham circles. I've owned 4 of them for at least 10 years without problems.
I also own a handful of other fiberglass poles and they have all been OK except an MFJ product. They collapse to approximately 4 feet.
Two of my poles with the bases at https://wordpress.com/view/chuckhuttonblog.wordpress.com
form the 18 x 18 corner fed loop I use at Rockworks. It can be assembled in 10 minutes in total darkness (with a flashlight). The concrete bases are thick enough to withstand moderate coastal windstorms and might be a bit heavy for a several hour DXpedition.
Chuck
