I bought it direct from the MOD Keith emoticon

Doesnt need any concrete, I have a plan emoticon I'll take loads of pics whilst installing it, I've had some "brackets" made at work emoticon

Just looked at the one on JS, its also on Ebay, its a ST model only 6.5m high, theres another on Ebay as well, that looks like an ST model as well and is 8m high I think, Scam 12 are 12m high emoticon

Mines a good 12" square at the base, the smallest diametre at the top in 2", it has a key way right up through the 8 sections, installed it tonight, only got as far as putting the mast in, had it extended as well, looks the FDB emoticon

Tomorrow I plan to get the compressor set up and hopefully get the aerial on the top emoticon Took too much puff to pump it up by hand, emoticon
