Hi all
Slightly off topic, but is related to my SBS installation.
In the next few months I will be returning to the UK and intend to upgrade my remote SBS setup.
I will be installing a 20ft swaged pole, already sourced. At the top will be my main 1090mhz aerial. I aim to situate a discone and a second 1090mhz aerial also on the pole, but underneath the main aerial.
I have all the bits I need except being able to source a suitable mounting bracket for the additional aerials. Ideally what I am after is a mount between 4-6 feet long with 90 degree turns at the end. This to mount horizontally on my main pole and the uprights allow for verticle aerial installation.
I have tried googling, but so far not found what I am looking for.
Grateful if someone knows of a good online retailer that I can contact
Thanks

Hi Mista Uzi (9mm ;D ;D )
I think you are looking for a 'crossover plate'. I found some on the Moonraker site:

And this forum post offers a home build solution:
