w2aew | #373: Portable ham radio / POTA: The Spiderbeam 40' (12m) telescoping mast and hitch mounted support @w2aew | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
This short video shows my new Spiderbeam 12 meter (40 foot) telescoping mast, and the trailer-hitch mounted support that I plan to use to support wire antennas for portable / POTA operations. I modified the "flagpole" mount to better accommodate the 40' tall mast. The specific products I used in this video are:
Spiderbeam mast:

Flagpole mount for 2" receiver:

PS: Found the following 3D printed collar that was designed specifically for the 40' Spiderbeam and this particular mount:
