I came across this online. I want to know if this type of mast is heavy enough to support an MFJ 2386 vertical antenna. I have decided to buy new rather than use rusted out equipment. Antenna is 23.5’ and only 7 pounds. Thanks Marty, AG5T(wind max on antenna is 67 mph). (if this will work, I would be put two feet in ground and bracket to side of house)
See notes below: Rohn H20 Mast Telescoping ROHN telescoping mast. Galvanized tubing with competitive staggered length feature. Top Section is 1-1/4", 16 gauge. Bottom Section is 1-1/2", 18 gauge. Used for Off-Air TV Antenna, Amateur (Ham) Radio, Wireless Internet Antenna, MMDS and Cell Phone Signal Booster Installations (not included). All Telescoping push-up Masts are galvanized and come with hardware designed to support light duty antennas in various applications. The unique Rohn design features interior tube flanging combined with a double crimped exterior tube to produce a stronger and more stable joint than most common mast. Each section extends deeper into the lower tubes than most designs, adding to the masts stability. Height describes the overall pipe length. Due to overlapping, extended masts will be shorter. This Mast extends to about 19 Feet in actual height and ships to Commercial and Residential addresses alike. Estimated Usable Extended Height is about 19 Feet. Mast Section Dimensions are: (1) 10'0" length x 1.25" O.D. (2) 9'10" length x 1.50" O.D. <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free. www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>
