Rick, 

IF you go the EMT galvanized route, I don't think the little stuff will hold 
up. I've used 1 1/4" and 1 1/2" for short masts and they seem to hold up. the 
1/2 and 3/4, and maybe even 1", don't have, at least to my thinking, enough 
strength to hold up to side pull. Check out the ARRL hand book or Antenna book 
for other suggestions. 
Good luck with your project.
