    Thanks for the tip and link, @rcarlson1957.  I've been contemplating going the painter's pole role route for my OmniGo antenna, so the information is very helpful.

    The magnet doesn’t cause interference with the antenna?

    Apparently not Marceline, my cell booster antenna has a magnetic base also.  Works just fine on top the TaB.  That said, you need to fix a painted steel washer to the TaB’s aluminum roof for the antenna’s magnetic to attach to.
