Johnny,
I have an aluminum telescoping mast that would probably work very well for you. It's been out of service for some time, but you're welcome to come have a look at it. If it works, you can keep it for a while, and if you decide you want it, we can work something out.
I'll be around this weekend if you're interested.

I need to get above the eves but stay below the roof line so as not to be visible from the street. I have put them on fiberglass push up masts and that worked okay but it probably a bit risk as they are probably a bit much for the usual fiberglass pushup mast.

I know there are several military mast in inventory out the in Fourlanders world. Would any of you be willing to part with one? The one I have has my EME array on it an is not very portable right now.
