2" Antenna Mast

Visit the plumbing section of any major home improvement store...I use galvanized water pipe, and it's much stronger than the typical TV antenna masts sold by Radio Shack and others. Get a threaded end, and screw onto a plumbing "nipple", whic can be through bolted or attached with lag bolts to a wooden surface. Black water pipe tends to rust, especially if you get it threaded, and in comparison, galvanized is almost maintenance free.
