Piece of aluminum 5/16" thick maybe 12x12 inches or whatever suites you - I 
usually get them 8x12 so they fit on top of a wall nicely when needed.  
Drill 1/2" hole about an inch in from each corner.  Weld an aluminum pipe 
to the middle about 2ft tall maybe 1" to 1-1/4 diameter.  Drill small hole 
near base so water can get out.  Take that and a tube of good silicone 
caulk and you can put a two foot pole that won't rust anywhere you want it 
(shingle, metal roof, soffit, wood panel, fiberglass, cement, stucco etc 
etc...)  It wont come off, you don't have to drill any holes and you can 
explain that the roof under it is more waterproof and stronger than it was 
before you put it there.  I should sell em and call then plop-a-pole's

Subject: [WISPA] Need small non-penetrating roof mount for single 
Nanostation + 5ft mast

Hello list,

I am setting up a PtP link between two gas stations for a client. I am 
going to be using two Nanostation M5 units going about 1/2mi diagonally 
across a highway. I'd like to mount them to a 5ft mast then to a 
non-penetrating roof mount, as the only place with clear line-of-sight is 
on the roof of both gas stations. Flat roof without much of a lip to mount 
an antenna to. All of my Google searches come up with much larger 
non-penetrating roof mounts, 3' or wider, which are designed for much 
larger and taller masts. Also very pricey, $150 or more each.

Does anyone make a small non-penetrating roof mount, say 2ft square out of 
metal with an attachment to hold a 5ft mast or including a 5ft mast? Maybe 
a single cinder/cement block to weigh it down would be all that is needed. 
Won't ever need to go higher.

Or do you have another suggestion for mounting?

Thanks in advance,

Josh
