I mentioned in my last post about mounting a tripod or support structure on a pitched roof for a small beam, likely 3 element 10, 15 and 20M cushcraft. I am not able to bolt the tripod or support structure to the roof, but may be able to use heavy sand bags or other large heavy leg anchors. Has anyone used something like this, and if so, what was the configuration? I think something like a four legged stand that goes across the peak of the roof with 50 or 75 pound sand bags on each leg should be enough, but I'm not sure. Also, how low can I put the beam above the roof to avoid swr changes as I turn it? The idea is to make sure the thing won't blow away in the first good wind, but I don't need to over do it either. How heavy are the cushcraft tribanders and what is the wind load and so on. 73 Colin, V A6BKX
