I’m trying to get my home node high enough for LOS to other parts of town. The house unfortunately has a full hip roof, so I can’t attach anything without going through the shingles. My current setup is a pole attached to an 8’ garden fence. That gets me to about 15’ AGL.
Based on the homes around me I need at least 30’ of height to clear their roofs. I’ve given up on trying to get above the trees because they’re old Oaks 50’-100’ high.
I keep seeing collapsing fiberglass poles online but they’re advertised as a temporary setup. Anyone have recommendations for at least a semi-permanent pole or small tower?
That sounds pretty great. I’ll have to look at local options. Biggest issue for me would be if I have a flagpole I’d want to put a flag on it 😆.
Who would put a flag on a flagpole after all? They’re perfectly made for antennas.
