I need a fairly small diameter, fairly inflexible mast. Will four of these linked together be very wiggly?

I wouldn't trust four of these inserted into each other. About 18' tall and only about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. . . . . probably not the best way to achieve your goal.

No necessarily. If you are elevating your antenna using this mast to clear an obstacle or get a better line on an transmitter it may help. It all depends on how your antenna is mounted and what you intend to use this.

The band won't stretch to fit 4 stacked. Doubtful for 3. You could tie it with something different though

I don't think any of them will work contrary to the picture. The indentation for the motor is too small. When you tighten the screws on the motor mount it starts to slide off. You'd have to mount some thin pieces of wood on either side to get a motor to fit snugly. I haven't figured anything else out yet. Other than that it's a great little boat.

Not 'as-is'. The cross bars do not clamp on to the mast to allow infinite adjustment. They instead are secured by bolts that fit into pre-drilled threaded bolt holes in the mast. However, with the correct size drill and tap you could easily customize to suite your needs. Hope that helps, Ed.

I believe the max opening adjustment is about 1 7/8". This is an excellant tripod mount at a good price, but you should look for one that will open to 2" or more. Can you mount your dish to a smaller mast?

what you are putting at the top and how big it is what is weighs is the primary concern. I have a single square OTA antenna and rotor at about 10 feet with no sign of problems. Only other issue is the diameter of the mast, too bad the don't make a reducing mast adapter to make it a bit lighter at the top.

It's very sturdy - so long as the mast fits. Might want to get some rubber washers for the mount to pole (where you can adjust the tilt) to keep the mast from tilting over.

HiI donth think i understood your question. But if you are saying would they wigle aroud after instalation, then yes they would a little even at bumps it would shake a bit but not an issue to worry about if you tighten it tightly i wont fall apart it wold hold on. So dont worry. Hopefuly thats your question.

should be fine if its round, if its rectangular the short side should work. Just be sure to mount them on a clean, hopefully non-porous surface for the best grip. I have some in place for over a year now and the mounts are just as tight as day 1.

Mine connected securely, also in 3 pieces, all the same size. I would experiment with turning them upside down to see if you get a secure fit.

A 4" Diameter cable bundle would have a circumference of 12.56". These would just about reach. If you did come up short you could connect two of these together end to end for a longer reach.

I doubt it, but it probably depends on how large the rod is. The attaching mechanism is made for a round bar, so it probably would be wobbly even if it would go over a square bar. I wouldn't chance it if I were you, unless you want to replace your bar for a round one.

I wouldn't worry so much about the size (as long as you wanted the domes side-by-side and used the metal hook in the middle), but I don't know what kind of weight the bracket can support.

Sorry, I cannot understand what you are asking here. These easily attach using standard MOLLE. They are quite rigid when attached to a MOLLE panel and filled with magazines, there is no jiggle, or wiggle.

Absolutely not, it's 4 small allen heads, use a touch loctite on each screw for a secure hold

Sure, you CAN extend the mast a bit if you had a tube with the proper inner diameter to give a snug fit and screwed it in place, but it would probably be simpler to just get a longer piece of emt and bend it to the proper shape. Of course, the base is only made to stand up to so much force, and the longer the mast you put on it, the more torque will be exerted on the bracket and therefore the shorter the life of the bracket. My advice would be to purchase an antenna stand that meets your needs for height rather than messing with this one.
