    Mike:

I have some of that stuff to support my Diamond X200A dual-band antenna.

Regarding the PVC pipe possibility, I had thought of that too, but wonder if 
it would be strong enough, though, for what I want?

Just thinking out loud here.

Subject: Another Antenna Support Idea


Check out the item on this subject in the Hints and Kinks section of
QST for April of this year.

It is 2 or 3 sections of uni-strut fastened together.

This material is available at Lowes, Home Depot, etc.

It would need to be guyed, but it is a cheap alternative.

I also know people who use large diameter heavy gage PVC pipe.
