Hello, I currently have a Channel Master 1m20 with its original polar mount on a kingpost that I had made.
the diameter is 76mm, the thickness is 3mm and the height is 2m.
There are 4 fin reinforcements of 80mm by 10mm over a length of 1m50.
The base is 250X250mm by 10mm and is fixed to the ground by 8 threaded rods in M12 taken in a concrete block of 250Kg.
I have a 1m80 to 2m60 prime focus antenna like this one :
On the notice it indicates that it takes a tube of 80mm in diameter.
my idea is to take an 80mm tube on a 50cm slot and 2mm thick, cut it lengthwise and insert it on the 76mm tube.
Fix the two tubes together and install the large antenna.
Do you think it's enough for an antenna of 1m80 and if possible 2m60?
