I've always used an aluminium pole (actually part
of an old 20m yagi reflector element) for my K9AY loops, works very well.
A short wooden pole driven into the ground holds
the aluminum pole and the loops act as an excellent guying system.
Strong and totally maintenance free.

put them in the trash can. Insidious stuff.
