[QUOTE="kippysat, post: 1141185, member: 418200"] Thank you Channel Hopper. So using your example would the following seem feasible....? 1. Use 4 poles. ( 1 x 5m pole, and 3 x 3m poles) 2. Erect the 5m pole in a perfect vertical position with 1.0m embedded in concrete, 0.5m in the ground, 0.5m above ground. 3. Erect the 3 x 3m poles in a tripod fashion mirroring an isosceles triangle shape connected to the central 5m pole at the top. All four poles would be embedded in the concrete 0.5m in the ground. 4. Use my local welder to weld together all four poles at the top point of the isosceles triangle for rigidity and to give the centre 5m pole great strength. That would leave just over 2.0m of the centre 5m pole exposed and unsecured. 5. Mount the dish as high as possible within the 2m unsecured section of the centre 5m pole. What do you think? [/QUOTE]
