They don't work that well and they are not free standing! And they are
cheap because in 2 years they are so rusted you can no longer use it ;-(
I've been there and done that, I wont do it again.

Radio Shack's telescoping masts work well and are cheap.

Do you need to climb it?

That's curious, I've had on problem with rust what so ever on any of the RS
masts I've used (three total).

I've got one on the roof now for 5 years, no problems. Bottom section is run
through the access hatch, then bolted to attic floor. Holding a 5 el 6m beam
and 11e l 2m beam. Rock solid through many big winds.
