1. Put a continuous loop of rope, with a marine pulley attached to it,
over a high branch.
2. Run a lanyard, attached to the end of your antenna, through the
pulley.
3. Pull the rope with the pulley up to the tree branch, tying it off
securely. [Note: you can lower the antenna by lowering this rope!]
4. Pull the lanyard to elevate the antenna to the height desired.
5. Tie off the lanyard on an anchor at the base of the tree.
Viola!
