Every antenna I ever bolted to a mast twisted. Tri-banders, 2M, TV antennas
always land up pointing in the wrong direction. I've had antennas actually
rotate, winding the coax around the mast till it pulls off. Does anyone have
a tip for keeping antennas fixed to the mast? No matter how tight the U
bolts are, the wind aways seems to win in the end.


Weld it.
