@DK3IP That portable mast really collapses! I saw the specs at 17", but seeing it like this just seems like magic.

Back when I climbed towers, I looked at things like that to fish a line over a 10M tower, but everything I found was too big collapsed. What you have isn't quite long enough, but the collapsed size tells me I didn't look hard enough.
