- I have a very supportive and patient partner who puts up with my
wires everywhere and hours spent staring at the radio but she,
very reasonably, draws the line at towers in the yard. ;-)<br>

<div> 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!<br>
<br>
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?<br>
