Hi Bryan,
I think I make what you are looking for.  If you look at www.Penninger.com you 
can see a portable base unit that with the clamp-it clamps is very flexible in 
what you can put together.  If you have any questions, please ask feel free to 
contact me at Radio@Penninger.com .  We used these bases at our field day.
Thanks & 73 de kc9dao. 
Charles.

Our local amateur club is working on putting together a portable emergency 
communications package that can be used in case of local emergency.  Everything 
has gone together very well except we are having problems putting together some 
type of support for a HyGain TH-3 triband beam.  

We are trying to keep the size of the entire communications package down to 
where it will fit in the back of a Suburban-Explorer type SUV or a pickup.  We 
need to come up with some highly portable way of 
supporting the TH-3 up 30-40 feet that could meet this criteria if possible. I 
would appreciate hearing from the tower guru's about ideas on how to handle 
this situation.

As a possible alternative, we have considered some type of trailer mounted 
tower system that could 
easily be hauled to a location and erected at the site by a couple of people 
EASILY.  Any ideas or 
suggestions about this possibility would also be appreciated. Portability and 
ease of quick erection 
are the keys to either of these options.....

Thanks

Bryan W5KFT
