SBARC trustee Bill Talanian, W1UUQ gave us a fascinating presentation about the SBARC telecommunications systems at Santa Ynez Peak. He has numerous photographs showed work performed at the site. Few of us have had the opportunity to see what goes on at this major repeater site, but Bill knows all! His vast historical knowledge of our local repeater sites is always interesting and informative!

25 Foot Fiberglass Portable Mast $100
This is an MGS MK-4-HD mast with a custom made tripod so that it can be self-standing, or used with included guys for high winds. The height can also be adjusted for use in higher winds. https://mgs4u.com/product/mk-4-series-25ft-masts/?v=7516fd43adaa the mast by itself costs $159. The tripod is comparable to the $199 MFJ tripod. The bottom tube is 2.5″ OD and the top is 1″. The mast is non-conductive so it will not distort the antenna beam patterns. The tripod folds so the whole thing is 5.5 feet long to transport. It has leveling feet to allow about a foot of the slope to be accommodated. This has been used successfully for many events and ARES drills and I have never needed to guy it. Good for field days, event support, or post-apocalypse communications. It can be installed and taken down by one person. It can also be used as a real tall camera tripod and a 1/4-20 threaded adapter is included to mount a camera on top.
