Ive had my Dipole tween two trees for years now. Next door always
been rented and Mine has been there since the previous Owner let me
hang it up there. Well the recent renters Hacked the cord. And I
dont know the current owner. So I must do somthing in my yard.
Except I can only go into one corner and it slopes pretty quick down
about 8 feet at the end.

I can come up the fence about 15 feet to gain it back.


But what im looking for is a cheap way to hang the dipole end back
up.

I'm not sure how cheap you wish to stay, but I would suggest a couple
10' stackable sections of 1"dia steel masts as often available at
hardwware stores' TV sections. ( I think some Radio Shacks carry them,
too, but haven't see the 10' ones in some time there.) They are strong,
light, and I don't think they cost that much. Certainly easier to work
with than wood, will have less visual impact, and will probably put much
less strain on the fence post where you mount it.

In the USA, Home Depot (and presumably Lowe's, etc.) sells 10- to 20-foot
lengths of pipe for the top "rail" of chain-link fences. Sometimes it
even has the swaging that allows one to fit in the end of another.
Remember that all such pipe masts will need guying.

Have you considered a couple rigid steel tube supports on the inside?
