The skywalker mast bracket's material feels more premium than its price would suggest. Straps can be hard to handle up on the roof, but once you get them in position around the chimney it is easy to install and very sturdy. It includes (2) y-type brackets, (2) 18ft steel straps & bolts & clamps & the installation stpes are illustrated in the section. The kit comes with two 18 ft rolls and two brackets. The straps are sharp, so mechanics' gloves help.
Mounting hardware is adequate, supplied straps long enough to fit most chimneys. The bracket will accommodate up to an 1 1/2" mast. It does require a medium level of mechanical proficiency.
Why We Like This:
Stainless straps and what looks like cadmium plated hardware

Next on the list, we've got yet another bracket that manages to win our hearts. It's the drm mast bracket and it's widely considered as one of the best convenient bracket you can buy. This is a very well built mount. You can almost do pullups on this thing, its sturdy. The tube is beautifully formed, and the welding and powder-coat quality are very good. The mounting plate has two nail holes to allow quick positioning and holding with nails until screws can be fastened for final placement. The expanded diameter at the top of this mount matches the original "1-5/8" Dish tube size, so the antenna should bolt right on the eave.
This is perfect for mounting an antenna on a garage roof rafter under the eave. The mast end is made with the female coupling end in place, so yes, you can add extensions as desired. It is good for a number of applications.
Why We Like This:
Has plastic caps covering both ends of the 'j' pipe
Very well made, heavy gauge steel and will most likely last a life time
Very solid platform for out nano beam dishes, easy to locate and install

Skywalker is known for creating pragmatic and minimalist bracket for people on the go, and its line of skywalker smaller pipe definitely falls in line with that reputation. It is a high quality pole adapter. It is designed to fit over a directv oval dish mast (do not know diameter off hand) so scale the outer diameter up to work on a directv slimline dish w/o changing out the mast. It installs in minutes, slide the pipe onto an existing pole or over the lip of the pole. The oval dish mast is smaller than the outer diameter of a 1.5 inch conduit and won't slide over the conduit. It is great for adding another 3/4' height to a j-pole.
The stability of this unit mostly depends upon the pipe that it is being attached to. If you have a regular chain link fence post, it will allow you to attach the larger dish.
