OK, but for the first product out the door, I am trying to pick the best size. I can later offer the different size but we gotta get the product out there on beta test. I am leaning strongly towards 2.875” as you really don’t want larger dishes on small towers. A dish large enough to want 4.5” is not going to be too happy hanging off the side of a 45G.

And doing the larger version of the M-TOW-P The question is, what size pipe? I had initially designed it with 3 inch pipe which is actually 3.5” OD. Looking at the pipe chart, 2.5” has an OD of 2.875”. The smaller pipe would be noticeably lighter to heft. Is that large enough to make SAF type mounts happy? Or would y’all rather have the larger pipe.
