Using satellite dish mount for OTA antenna

[Txkiwi]

I have this great antenna that I had in my attic. Unfortunately some channels were spotty, I decided to move it outside. I have a Dish Antenna mounted to the side of my house, and they did such a good job I want to keep the mounting and use it for my antenna. So I removed the dish and kept the mount.

The problem? Height, the antenna is so big it's hitting the roof. I need height. Anyone know of a mast that will fit into the Dish's mount?

It will probably take some jury rigging but many different size pipes will fit inside the mount. The DISH mount is 1 5/8" outside diameter so you can put a smaller pipe inside and bolt it together or a larger size on the outside then bolt it together. You might find a muffler shop to swedge a pipe to fit the mast. How large a diameter will your TV antenna clamp on to?

Welcome to the site! Here's a link to one. Don't know if this one is long enough, 30''. I'd measure the opening on the mount to be positive of it's size before getting anything.
