Non PenetratIng TV Antenna Shallow Peak Roof Mount - Needs Covering For Weather

Description

I have four (4) available to sell.
The masts and antennas in the photos are not included.
The box mount dimensions are 18 x 18 x 8 inches and is constructed of heavy 3/4-inch plywood. It weighs about 13.6 pounds.
Non penetrating antenna mast mounts for peaked roofs are expensive, from about 0 to 0 shipped and you still have to add a mast anchor for the attachment.
If you’re looking for a more esthetically pleasing alternative to antenna tripod mounts this custom made plywood “birdhouse” mount is good.
(The lowest price for a 3-foot tripod mount is about shipped.)
A woodworking friend made these antenna mast mounts to straddle my home’s peaked roof. The included four (4) carriage bolts should be added to each bottom inside corner post by drilling 1/2“ holes and screwing them in with a 5/8” wrench and then adjusting them after placing the box on the roof so it makes solid contact with the irregular shingles surface and to prevent the wood from making contact with the shingles. They also allow rain to drain away from the mount.
My friend said the best way to make the boxes weather resistant is to cover the outside surfaces with plastic panes that are cut to fit.
There is a universal roof/attic mount attached inside (the lowest price on eBay is shipped). The mount U-bolt can clamp masts up to 1½” in diameter but the box top hole may have to be enlarged if the fit is too tight.
The two U-bolt nuts are tightened by using a 7/16-inch or 11mm deep socket wrench with a 6-inch extension through the holes in the side. There are two extra “peep” holes on the top next to the mast hole so you can see the U-bolt nuts to guide the socket wrench to them.
If your mast isn’t taller than about five (5) feet and your antenna isn’t susceptible to high wind loading you might be able to put concrete blocks around the mast instead of installing guy wires. However, that might be a code violation in California because it specifies that antennas must be mounted according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. I know about this because I received a code violation citation when a state inspector for a house in my neighborhood saw my antennas. I had to remove the blocks and install guy wires.
For local pickup I am a few blocks off of 680 on the border of Pleasant Hill and Concord, California.
