Can somebody recommend a mount for the Lava HD-2605? It will be mounted on a roof, so I need something vertical. Thanks!

There are several right here on Amazon, however, I would not get the lava again. The best one is the new boostwave. Not as easy as lava to assemble, but ten times better at a cheaper cost.

The one offered along with the antenna has worked perfectly for us for several years. Easy to attach to the side of the house.

I used the tripod the old antenna was on. You can get one at RadioShack or on line.

I did exactly that...one trip to home depot. I picked up a very sturdy flag mount that screws down with four screws. I also grabbed an 8 inch piece of galvanized pipe that had threads on one end along with a plastic cap that screws on to those threads. Mount the flag base on the roof, put the pipe in as you would a flag, and attach the antenna securely....going on one year now and still satisfied.

menards sells a trypod stand that screws to the roof for around $ 20.00,they should have a pole for it.i bought the trypod last year.i already had a pole.the higher the pole the better,mine is about 8 ft tall.the lava works great as long as its signal is not bolcked by an object.only one channel is hard to receive and it is very weak.

Sorry, I don't know. My guess is that the OmniMount MOD1 works best when stacked with other MOD1s, but I don't know for sure.

My Ridgeline is vertical also. However, the kit comes with both horizontal and vertical mounting plates, so you should be good either way. The only issue I had was carpet (which I didn't want to cut). I couldn't thread the bolt and hold the mount at the same time. I had to back the seat bolt off to the last tread or two, enough to barely slide the mount under the bolt head, then cranked it down. It's rock solid.

i havent personally tried nor do i own an h105 i use an h100 in the top of the case and there is tons of clearance on the back side. so if you mount int he top there prob wont be any issues!

usually it is mounted to your roof with a 3ft tripod and 5ft of mast or pipe.you can also use a wall mount to keep from putting holes in your roofihg.

I believe it would be fine to mount it vertically. mine is horizontal, but I don't see anything that would prevent or prohibit from vertical.

You would probably need a ball head mount, but yes I have done vertical work with it

Hey Jim, My version didn't have a mounting option. When I reviewed it, this was one of the suggestions I made. I have put some double sided tape on it and it has been holding up pretty well.

If its on your roof use one like the one I ordered here HDTV Antenna Mount - 20in If you want it on a pole I would either put 1" metal outdoor conduit pole plumb in ground and either put a bag of sack crete around it or do what I seen someone do put it in a 5 gal bucket and pour sackcrete in around it.

Joe, this is NOT for roof mounting. This model is for Wall mounting only. There are other mounts for sloped roofs...keep searching. Mark in NY

Not sure about the metal roof, but I'd say at least 30' from the ground. Inverted V would probably be easier to mount than horizontally. Also, ver rival polarization is used by more CBers than beam antennas which are horizontally polarized.

Mounted on roof should work great just aim correctly to get best signal. Install like any other large antenna. Its light weight for its size. Having flat terrain should work even better.

I would not try mounting this camera upside down since it was designed for a vertical surface. Am sure you can find an alternative.

I agree. Look at the Firestiks or Wilson antennas if you want to thread mount it. I posted a pic of the antenna disconnected from the magnetic base if you decide to go this route.

Here is a link to the one I used. I didn't mount it on the roof, but it says you can: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0007U5C2O/ref=pe_385040_30332190_pe_175190_21431760_3p_M3T1_ST1_dp_1 Scott
