Mark,

DXEngineering has a mast load calculator (offline as of this moment).
Although I'm not answering your question directly, many here will have a
good 'seat of the pants' feeling if you tell us what antennas and what
heights you are planning for.

Looking to purchase a mast that was quoted as:

CRT 2 inch OD x 0.25 wall by 20 ft DOM

Not galvanized as yet.

Will this be near equivalent to Chromoly?

A modest antenna load is planned- wind surface area.

Regards,

Mark, K1RX
