When I shifted to an Apartment flat, I faced difficulty in mounting mast for my 2m/70 cm VHF/UHF) vertical Antenna. I don't need high mast but just reasonably high so that it should not need extra guy-wire support. So I bought empty Paint buckets from junk market. Filled it with soil. Poured water so that it becomes like mud. Then inserted the Aluminum Pipe mast into it with mounted Diamond CP22E 2m Antenna (Initially I installed homebrew Slim JIM). Two bricks kept for extra weight and support so that the pipe should not tilt. In the other bucket I first inserted a higher diameter PVC pipe, then inserted Aluminum pipe with Diamond X30A ,
2 m/ 70 cm Band Antenna. Both the Antenna installed at some good distance, as it is recommended.
The set up working fantastically good.
Some of the images of my Antenna setup are shown for better understanding.
