My antenna is supported by two masts, approx 50ft high.

One mast is two 25ft sections of aluminium. The lower 25ft is a thick-
walled pole. Raising and lowering is easy.

The other mast has a 20ft steel scaffold pole topped by several 5ft 
sections of thin-walled and deliberately flexible pole. The weight of 
the steel pole makes raising and lowering this mast a 2/3 person job.

I have searched the web for scaffolding and have found alumimium 
poles for building work, but I get the impression that an enquiry for 
just one or two poles will be laughed at. In any case, delivery costs 
could be high.

I would prefer to replace the steel pole with one section (or perhaps 
two) as it is supported by wall brackets, not guys, and there is a 
large unsupported section above it. The attached image shows the 
arrangement - the one I want to replace is the lower half of the 
house end.

How should I go about finding a suitable pole at a reasonable price, 
and getting it delivered?

Mike, G3XDV
