THE CHIMNEY RATCHET BRACKET

[@frimleyfrodo]

Nice job. I recall the Stack Strap band that Blake released some years ago. It was a steel band lashing, but that nylon or plastic band looks like an improvement.

Your vids are getting better and better each video

I'm an HFC (hybrid fiber/coax) tech here in the states, its cool to see someone doing a similar job across the pond. The pitch of that roof is so steep it is making me uncomfortable over video. Lol Only thing I would change is to make a much longer jumper for your SLM, I use a 2m jumper on both my in and out port. Makes taking measurements so much easier, though my meter is 7x-8x that size and heavy as sin. So holding it up like you are is not a fun option in my case.

Weirdly I really enjoyed this video😊. Thanks for the guide, I'll be using this to put up a weather station on my chimney with that ratcheting bracket. Thank god I dont have to drill into the chimney

[@aardvarkinstalls]

Glad you enjoyed it mate. And thanks for commenting. It all helps the channel grow 👍

Great 👍🏻 video Nice installation, Do you carry spare 13mm nuts for v bolts As its a climb down if you drop 1,😮 Longer test lead, for meter may be better Also a strap for the meter so it's not slipping off the roof Just some observations, tips, etc, from a fellow installer Not being a smarty pants 😅 Good job, quick aswell, Keep em coming, Ps, we get some epic views, Summer soon, need the sunscreen not the hat, 😅 Also easier taping up, when it gets warmer, not having to remember to keep it in my pocket so I can actually use it, if you get me,

[@aardvarkinstalls]

Yeah don’t worry mate I’ve got all that, I’m not new to the game 😆

[@janchrismurphy5866]

I know, just some observations, Been at myself 30 years, Keep on giving us the great content, 👍🏻

Ouch! those steel bands are razor sharp when cut hope you didn't hurt your hands!

[@tcalcut]

Roof looks steep !!

[@benjohnson3178]

If I'm not very much mistaken that looks like a wideband aeriel. So it's not a incredibly old aeriel. The pole looks pretty ancient though.

[@benjohnson3178]

I'm talking about the original installation by the way. The new installation you carried out is top class!

[@aardvarkinstalls]

Absolutely bang on mate. Should never have been fitted anyway as it’s far to heavy for that size pole and bracket. It was a diy job apparently though so I’d let them off 😄

[@rachelbailey-no2pp]

​@@aardvarkinstallsAre the chimney brackets heavy?

[@aardvarkinstalls]

@@rachelbailey-no2pp not to me but it depends what you deem heavy?

[@rachelbailey-no2pp]

@@aardvarkinstalls Well can the brackets weaken the chimney by adding weight?

[@L1RW]

20:57 is the aerial on the left out of alignment?

[@aardvarkinstalls]

It must be, it was balancing on the top as well, looked loose. Mine was pointing the correct way anyway 😆

[@abdulbhayat132]

Would you install my aerial

[@aardvarkinstalls]

Where are you?

[@janchrismurphy5866]

What’s that mate?
