There is no need for anything else. You can just bolt it down wherever you want it to be. One is equipped with a dawn to dust light and the other with a television antenna.
Hi, it fits both sizes. The pole has a diameter of 2" on one end and a diameter of 1" on the other. At the other end, there is a 6" tubing. Thanks a lot
Only if you want the mast to be plumb can you do this on the roof ridge
You do not get a level bubble with it.
Selected User Reviews For Satellite Tripod for Directv or Dish Network 2" & 1 5/8" OD Satellite Mount work on FTA as well
The tripod we use for our dish on our camper that we leave up all year round was a gift- This way around. There's a full-size DirecTV dish on the roof. The stakes are obviously anchored to the ground, but they have resisted very windy weather in the Tennessee River Valley. This is the way to go if you already have a dish and you just want to take your box along. Some of the satellite companies will let you obtain an additional box for a minimal setup fee, and some will also complete the installation for you. It has since come to our attention that some satellite companies will allow you to add an additional box and dish to your current home service and they will set it up for you at no charge.
As years passed, my DirecTV dish loosened up since it had been mounted on the patio roof, and I got tired of bricks propping it up. I can attest to the durability of this tripod since installing it took a reasonable amount of time. There have been gusts of over 40 miles per hour and it has remained The tripod I wish I had 25 years ago would have made this installation so much easier.
I consider this to be good Strong enough for a lot of use. This is an easy-to-install product. A short mast has a larger diameter one end and a smaller diameter the other end so it can accommodate multiple antenna types. It was mounted on a tripod with an old Cushcraft R7 amateur radio vertical antenna and it works very well. As I put additional 2x4s under the roof deck to make the attic stronger, I used my own bolts to mount to the roof. I used the hardware that is provided, but I used my own bolts to mount to the roof. It is also very important that you use roofing cement to seal the shingles under and over the bolts in order to prevent.
It took quite a bit of effort to set this up the first time. A couple of bolts that level the mast have unthreaded holes through which two nuts are loose. were able to remove the extra nut from the outside of the hole, and the nuts were able to be used to level the mast. If the inside nuts had been tack welded to the holes, it would have been much easier to level the mast.
In our camp trailer, we bought this to put our dish on. The nut was stuck inside, so he couldn't put it together. So he had to weld it.
The stand and the mast are great. My only complaint was that one washer was missing. It's not a big deal, but all the other screws and washers were properly attached except for that one, which indicates that the manufacturer knew it was missing before they sealed it. Besides that, there are no restrictions. In my opinion, Agsin would be a good purchase.
I have been able to hold my antenna up in winds of 40 miles per hour without any problems. Product that is very strong and very good.
That I mounted this on top of a Mueller Steel building and that the anchor pads lined up with the top center purlins was interesting. I like it.
