Hi Travis with the popularity of the mini satelite dishes there are a few television towers kicking around . I welded two sections together to make them good and solid and put a few layers of cheap 1/2" spruce plywood on top to attach my stations to and it kinda worked out super solid and best of all...cheap!!!
