Hi,
drifted over from uk.tech.digital-tv back to the more generalised DIYers :-)
About to fit a new TV aerial to a chimney.
I have scaffolding erected (also doing other work to chimney) so I should have safe access.
I am (as usual) working my way around Screwfix et. al. to source my components over the Internet.
However nobody seems keen to post me a 12' pole to use as a TV mast.
I have got the following prices from a local aerial firm.
10' by 1.5" pole - £15 20' by 2" pole - £34The 20' price seems a little steep for just an alloy tube, but then again this is a larger diameter than sink waste pipes so is a pretty hefty piece of kit.
Any suggestions for alternative sources of 2" alloy pipe (perhaps cut to length) where you may not be charged a premium because it is a TV mast?
TIA
