I have been using aluminum mast for along time. I have to say I have bent a
couple but that was all my fault for over loading them. I run the hazer on
both my towers. The hf tower the mast sticks out 18' out the top. I have a
th7,a3ws,and a d40 on the mast. On the vhf/uhf tower I have a 617b2,17b2,klm
31'
for 222 and a 30' boom on 432 . This is all on 20' of mast. It has 18' out
the top of the hazer also.
I have bent a couple of mast due to the load. I am using #80 6061 .25" wall
stuff. I am going to install two more towers and will use the same mast on
them because they are light weight . I have a supplier here close to me. I
have
also sold many to hams and they also have been pleased with them. They come
in 20' sticks.
