I need to get a 10 meter beam 24 feet above my roof in order to clear the
adjacent tree tops. Is this a job that I can accomplish with guyed 1 1/4"
steel TV masts? Figure a rotor and a yagi around 2.5 sq ft wind load. What
can I do to make a rooftop mast installation better and more secure? Is there
a decent source of info on using masts? And is there a source for better than
Radio Shack grade materials?

Appreciate any suggestions and comments. Sure would like to get some aluminum
up there!!
