HI Dana
I used a Radio Shack push-up mast for a long time before I got the tower
I have now. Had a 2 el quad, A-3, 3 el 20 meter mono-bander and now a 2
el 10 meter mono-bander on it. Never had any problems. It was right
next to the house so I could let it down when some of the Coos Bay winds
started blowing. I bought it at a garage sale about 15 years or so ago
and still using it. 73
