I want to use galvanized water pipe as an antenna support, and wonder
where
I can get the heavy duty mast supports (standoffs from the side of a
house)
to accommodate say a 1.5" mast.
You can reach me at .
Thanks for any help.

Radio Shack carries two different sizes of stand-off from the eave of a
house to a 1.5 to 2" mast.

In the past I've used the Radio Shack wall stand-offs with a section
of galvanized 1.5" water pipe, and that worked fine to support an R-5
vertical, but the pipe is heavy and needs to be ground-supported, as
Tam inferred.
