Will give best resistance to being pulled out. I have a pair of clothes drier line screw in bases. They have a slide=20 in bar to screw it in/out. No hammering or extraction problems. one for a pole. or three for three poles in tripod or four for 1 x central pole and 3 for steel wire guys About 10 Euro each. About 35cm to 40cm long, like giant hollow wood screw. Has plastic=20 concentric "spacers" that fit inside top for different diameter poles. I bought them for Temporary Radio Mast bases. Works well with 6m mast=20 and no guys. I was going to try two 10m poles (clamp together=20 concentric/telescopic) with two guys on each pole and 20m to 80m caged=20 dipole between them. --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
