Look around for the fiberglass stackable army surplus mast sections either at a local flea market or online.  Think they come in 4-foot sections. That’s what I’ve been using to support my K9AY loop for years.

Alas. details and source have fled my brain, and much of what I've studied on line is much more expensive (and probably much sturdier) that what I had then. I'd appreciate any current suggestions.
