I'd be interested in the 20 ft of 2x4. What's the best way to do
that?

Wood 2x4's come in 20 ft. lengths although not every lumber store
carries that length. Or you can stack shorter 2x4's side by side and
staggered to form a 4x4 base. Laying on its side, such a support might
look like:

-----12 ft length------------------16 ft length--------------

+------------------------+--------------------------------------+
+------------------------+--------------+-----------------------+
+---------------------------------------+

-------------16 ft length--------------

The upper 16 foot section can be hinged to lay the antenna down.
I used treated lumber for pole applications. Then I added a 20
ft section of fiberglas pole to the above using U-bolts to get
to 44 feet total height.
