What I did was put it up like an inverted v.  I wanted to keep the center
resister and or ballon away from metal, so I extended the mast with a
piece of heavy pvc pipe.  I just used tape and cable ties to secure the
center stuff.  On each end, I just brought a rope from each end of the
spereader, tied them together and ttied that point to a fence post driven
in the ground on one end, and the back wall of my yard on the other.  By
the way, I drove that pose in twice and hig a 1 inch underground sprinkler
line both times.  How is that for luck.
