What size mast pole does it use for mounting outside? I'm thinking electrical conduit would be OK?

I used the pole and base that my former DISH was attached to. Hope that helps.

We mounted ours on the old satellite mount, which is a little bit bigger than a rake handle. The bolts and screws that you use to mount it are also adjustable so you could likely get away with a bigger or smaller pole, no problem.

Yes the mount plate should be grounded, thru mast, tower or if in or on a tree/fiberglass pole. use a ground wire to ground.

Yes, it's designed to mount outdoors. There are two holes in the base that you can use to secure it to something.

If you attach antenna brackets up the side of a house or something to stabilize it you could. Otherwise 6-7 ft is about it . Also depends on if it's a wooden or metal pole.

No, it wouldn't work. I did see some others on Amazon that were designed for pole mounting though.

Basically just some simple anchoring hardware - Really depends on what the back porch and the light pole is made of will decide your mounting options.However you may want to use something other than the light pole if your local utility gets touchy about anything you attach to their pole. Plus of course stay far away from anything that carries a voltage/current !

I used a 2" PVC pipe cut 3' long. I dug a 3' hole and poured s bag of concrete around pipe. Now I can insert and remove the pole when needed.

I attached mine to a 20 ft pole on the outside of my house. Like we used to attach TV antennas. Works great!

Anything over 8 feet should have guy wires to hold the pole steady in a wind. Other wise the pole will sway and then bend over. Put 3 or 4 guy wires at 8 feet and 16 feet. You could put up a 40 foot tower if you have the room

It's not overly large and perhaps could be used indoors, but it is not intended as such. I have mine mounted on a 40-foot mast.

That should be no issue. That is approximately what I have if you include the mast and the antenna. I don't do a lot of movement from station to station. You may find that may be a hindrance to your needs. It has been though the winter and several strong storms and no problems yet.Hope this helps

As long as you have enough room (width) you should be fine. It is easiest to use when your hook is mounted straight across from the unit. Perhaps mounting the unit to the outside/underside of your deck, and the hook to a post out in your yard (so you get more sun!)

Paul, The pole appears to be (Outside Diameter) 1 3/4" or 1 7/8" ... The base that comes with it looks 2" OD.. . Good luck

It comes with 2 U Clamps to attach the antenna to a mast pole. I suspended mine from the attic rafters with nylon twine. Remember, it's pretty big. I'd measure the space carefully.

The Antenna we mounted to this will take up to a 2" pole, this mounting pole took up every bit of the mount on the antenna. I'm going to say it's a 2" diameter. It's roughly the same size if not exact to that of a satellite dish mounting pole.

You will need 1 1/4 mast to mount the antenna too ,this mast then will mount on a tripod that goes on top of theRoof, or you could use what they call a gable mount. All these items can be purchased on Amazon , I would buy the 1 1/4 " conduit from your local hardware store.

I think it comes with different mounting brackets. I used mine on an old pole. I wish I could be more help, but I don't remember the brackets.
