would be a good way to do it.
I could build the rotor/antenna mont out of aluminum to make it fairly
light. Ideas?

Almost any full service lumber yard in Oklahoma should carry barn door
hardware. Also, Home Depot and Tractor Supply carry that sort of item.

Many years ago an article was published here how to make this Hazer type
device..It looked heavy on the side of his tower.
If anyone wants the article, I could try to find it and make a scan.
