Have never seen such an animal in Houston in several years... this 
place is really a satellite/cable town as the antennas for Harris 
county are about 25 miles SW of downtown which puts them about 50 
miles from the near North side of Houston or my QTH.

anyway, there are no TV/VHF/UHF broadcast yagis or poles being sold in 
this town of 3 million people.

however, if anyone gets a part number/brand, etc for a push pole for 
either box store, please pass it to the list.
