Oh, I can do it for that price, but I have a distribution channel and they have
to be able to have a margin too.

That price is a little crazy though. You could just maybe buy that steel and
weld that and galvanize it yourself for $78. Maybe they use slave labor.

But you're right. It depends on who/what you're getting. Problem is that you
never really know unless you've dealt with whomever.

Do you know this, or are you speculating? My information was that
Connect-It fabricated all their stuff in Florida including the galvanizing.
That’s one reason I liked buying from them. That and their workmanship
(welding and galvanizing) seemed better than Andrew/Commscope.
Sitepro1/Valmont does import parts from China, which they do not hide, it
is stamped right into them. I am sad to report however that the quality seems
quite good.
Remember that virtually all brand name tools are made in China, not just
Harbor Freight. They can make junk and they can make good stuff.

Chinese steel. Otherwise known as zinc-plated lead.

How much standoff do you need? I have used Andrew S200 like George
says (2 ft standoff) or S300 (3 ft), actually they go up to 6 ft standoff. Or
Connect-It Wireless S2-S6. Can be used on vertical or sloping tower legs.
Sitepro1 also has several solutions, some of which are YUGE!

I had looked at those, I just didn't know if it had enough standoff for
use with an omni - from a shadowing perspective.

Anyone have suggestions for a standoff mount for use with a 5GHz
omni? It will be mounted to the side of a Pirod tower, so I'm going to need
some sort of standoff to minimize shadowing.
