I'd like to move my VHF antennas off my deck and since a 'real tower' is
off the table I'm going with a roof mounted system. What I have in mind
is too much for a simple tripod style mount so the next step up is a
'roof tower'. I've seen several glowing reviews for a design from Glen
Martin but I'm not able to find those available online anywhere. I did
find a similar design by W8IO but he also is no longer offering it for
sale. He does, however, provide a detailed construction guide!
I am certainly capable of assembling the thing but I lack the tools to
fabricate the parts. Does anyone know of a local metal shop that would
be willing to take on such a small project?
73 & Thanks!
