<p>[QUOTE="Fringe Reception, post: 148372, member: 4739"]Most antenna 'U' bolts are designed to clamp to 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" tubing and they have a <u>very</u> hard time clamping securely to small diameter pipes or tubes. In this case, the surface area where the 'U' bolt contacts the mast is reduced to about 20%, so the antenna is unlikely to stay in the direction it was originally pointed. Been there - done that.</p><p></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p></p>
