I saw a guy say some people are those " Flag guys " I guess I am . Looking at various types and some are telescoping and cheap and some are several hundred apiece . I'm looking to buy 3 , any suggestions ?

Just did a search and one of the first ones that shows up is this one below. It's a telescoping one and only $59.99. Has a bunch of good reviews.

Serious question. Anyone consider running a digital antenna line up one of these?

We were talking about it in a post on the football board a few weeks ago. Would be a cheap way to get an antenna up high for a better signal. You would just have to figure a way to temporarily attach the coaxial cable to it so it won't flap around in the wind and wouldn't cause issues with lowering the pole when needed. You probably would need to find a way to ground the antenna as well in case of a lightning strike so it doesn't fry your TV.

Thanks never considered Harbor Freight , Amazon has tons but the reviews vary so much .

Man I hate Amazon reviews. Something will have like a 4.8, but it will be 85% 5 star and 15% 1 star ratings. Can't they just sell more mediocre stuff that everybody rates at a 3.5?
