Would be upsetting to have it broken, but then if it isn't high enough it doesn't work correctly.
Is it a case of if it gets struck it is rotten luck?
I'm lucky enough to be on the side of a hill so that there are trees and neighbours antennas that are slightly higher :twisted:

mind you, theres approx 1500mm of pvc above the mast and prior to the boltek being on top, there was a discone and beam up there that had been there for a few years....

so touch wood ;)

Davis NZ is their supplier ;) Forlongs won't stock it but will get it in for customers...

Still undecided about MML - mind you, haven't had a decent look at it yet either...
