Another quick update - told him it would be a week or so before
I got around to actually mounting the poles, so he hasn't dropped
them off yet.

I keep an American flag hanging from the front porch. I have thought
about moving it to the new pole when I get it mounted. Is it okay
to mount a flag BELOW the top of the mast? Below the antenna?
