I also use junk tubing from a kid’s swingset for Field Day. It’s worked fine

Successful systems can be designed around most any components, as long as one
doesn’t try to do too much!

I have a 2 element SteppIR on a very light duty
40 foot high 10 inch aluminum tower using 1.5"
(actual OD 1.9") schedule 80 PVC conduit as a mast.
It's been up several years, through lots of storms.
Only a foot or two is above the top plate of the
tower. No problem. I really appreciate the
lighter weight vs iron water pipe. I needed
a mast I could get immediately, as opposed to
ordering an aluminum mast.
