I picked up a Rocketdish RocketM2 radio for WiFi reception and tried to
mount it on an old Dish-TV antenna arm.

The problem is it's about six inches too short (see picture above).

I had planned on bolting this to the wood boards framing the edge of a
tile roof (without going on the roof itself).

Advice sought:
a) Would you just extend the mast with a pipe?
b) Would you buy a new mast (from where)?
c) Is there another trick I can't think of?

I'm hoping a clever idea will pop out of this.

Otherwise, I'll just buy a new antenna arm and make sure it's longer
somehow!



Use a mounting made for eaves/trim like this:
