Hi all

I've been using a mast made out of a piece of aluminum for about 10
years here.  It has a three element 20 meter mono-bander and 2 el 15
meter mono-bander on it now.  I've had everything from quads to
tri-banders to present setup on it. Check Coos Bay for winds and you
will see they are quite high, and never had a problem yet.  73
