Thanks to my friend @hamradiotube and his video telling us parts for @GigaPartsHuntsville POTA Explorer masts are now available. I ordered up two sets of spares and one more mast. These masts are super high quality and only break when you do something silly to them like I did.

This video is a quick overview of the process to swap out sections in this mast, and it equally applies to any sectioned mast when the parts are available.
