Along the save lines as what Steve said, you could even side-mount a short
section of 25G near the top and then be able to use an off-the-shelf rotor
plate, thrust bearing, etc.. We did this on a large-face tower (Stainless
G10) in order to hold a rotor and bearing for a 2 GHz steerable dish, and in
another case on a smaller tower (48" face) for a steerable VHF yagi. A
beefy collar suitable to hold a platform would be plenty strong enough to do
this on a monopole, then it would just be a matter of the attachment to the
25G, preferably grabbing all three legs.
Chain mounts are a cheap and easy way to add side-arms for VHF omnis and the
like anywhere along the length of the pole.
