replying to everyone individually, I will reply to the list (as it may be relevant to others out there). I also got some replies from the tower talk list as well. It seems that going with a beam is worth it when you use a mast (to keep costs down). I take it with a mast, the rotator is on top right? What type of mounting on the ground do you need? As far as guying is concerned, if I attach a mast to the back of my garage, can I guy the tower to parts of the house? The Force12 Low Profile Towers seem like a good compromise. I would probably go with the 41' version. I would want to mount it to the back of the garage (if it is that small, I could probably mount it to the side of the house where the garage and house meet.) I have an MQ1 already that I bought cheap, but I like the idea of a 5 band antenna. With the military masts, could I attach it to the side of the house somehow? Anything I can make retractable and safe, I can use. And I do not think the city is actually going to come out and measure that the antenna is exactly 35' high when extended :) Thanks!
