I cannot type. I have an offer of 4 pipes of 5ft length. Would placing them
on the eaves help?

Hi Randy,

You mean one at each corner or the house for 5 foot elevation? Or do
you mean all four combined for a one time gain of 20 foot elevation?

I have an Army field grade mast kit with 8 five foot heavy duty pipes
that does a good job (the kit also includes stakes, cording and plates
for 3 tiers of guys, and a 2.5 pound sledge). Works fine, but if I
wanted 20 feet, I would go buy two 10 footers. You have to be careful
these days about your pipe sources. Some in the CIA would claim they
could be used in Uranium Centrifuges and a cruise missile may be
targeting you soon.

If we fall back on the 4 spread among the corners - nah. Too much
work for wholly no observable gain.
