Hey Andy, 
 I will give you a hand with it..Do you have a ladder to get up on roof? 
How about one afternoon this week ?

Hey Andy,
Not sure about your routing needs, but I ran mine from the attic to the basement by drilling a small hole next to a radon pipe (pvc) that is in a closet. A little duct seal closed off everything around the coax in the ceiling and the floor of the closet. As I ran the coax behind the pvc you can’t even see it unless you go looking for it. Some zip ties keep it snug to the pipe and nothing is outside the house. 
I know everyone’s install is unique though, but I’m sure you can work it out. Let me know if I can help. Good luck with your install.

Hey Mike,
I have thought of that. Getting the coax down the exterior wall to the shack is extremely difficult in this situation. I wish that would work. 
Best,
Andy

Hey Andy, I'm not all that good on my roof either, and that is one reason I mounted my X-30 in my attic.  Not sure if that would work for your application, but my X-30 seems to work very well in the attic and I didn't have to get on the roof at all!
Just a thought.
Good luck.

Good Evening,
My new ham shack is coming together nicely. I have all HF antennas up and running. I need help with the 2M/70cm antenna. 
I have a Diamond X30 on a Dish TV mounting bracket. I need to bolt it down to the roof, but I'm honestly terrified of roof work. 
Is there anyone willing to help me out with this? I'll gladly pay someone to mount it. Feed line and mount ready to go.
Thanks in Advance,
Andy, WA4BRX______________________________________________________________
