[Alexandria Radio Club Reflector] Fwd: Re: Installing a Pipe Mast at QTH in Fairfax County

[Samudra Haque]

Hi,

I've talked to several ham radio vendors on pipe mast couplers and
stand-off brackets. I would hope in around the Alexandria area there
are some friendly small metal fabrication workshops, who could build a
couple of brackets for me to use as supports for this mast (HF mast,
VHF/UHF mast).

Does anyone have any friends who are involved in metal workshops
nearby? Could you provide me a contact number please!
