Chimneys are not usually recommended as good mounting points for antennas of 
that size.  I would ask several knowledgable people before proceeding in 
that direction, starting with the weight and wind load specs of the hex 
beam.

Subject: Antenna rotator needed

Hi List,
I am thinking about putting a Hex Beam and will need a light duty =
antenna rotator that is blind friendly.
Any suggestions?  Or is there one that can be made usable in some way?
I'm planning to put all on a fireplace chimney.
Any ideas would be appreciated!
