Wooden Antenna Mast

This mast must be guyed, it can not stand alone!!!
My main antenna is the G5RV. Being that the 35 foot, center fed, ladder line also radiates, its a good idea to keep it away from any metal, so a wooden mast was the ticket for me. For less than 100 bucks I will construct a guyed 40 ft mast strong enough to support a few of my lightweight antennas. The nice thing about this mast is that if you remove the bottom three bolts, the upper portion of the mast will be able to be tilted down for service.
